urlnorm.py - URL normalisation routines

urlnorm normalises a URL by;
  * lowercasing the scheme and hostname
  * taking out default port if present (e.g., http://www.foo.com:80/)
  * collapsing the path (./, ../, etc)
  * removing the last character in the hostname if it is '.'
  * unquoting any %-escaped characters

Available functions:
  norms - given a URL (string), returns a normalised URL
  norm - given a URL tuple, returns a normalised tuple
  test - test suite
  
CHANGES:
0.92 - unknown schemes now pass the port through silently
0.91 - general cleanup
     - changed dictionaries to lists where appropriate
     - more fine-grained authority parsing and normalisation
