Align mediawiki.Uri more with the native URL constructor

Description

Chrome and Firefox both ship with a native URL constructor (https://url.spec.whatwg.org/).

There is a polyfill implemented at https://github.com/webcomponents/URL.

This seems to be a more stable implementation than whatever we came up with. It has solved bugs such as T68617.

Currently blocked because upstream polyfill insists on using ES5 feature Object.create(null); which our shim currently doesn't support. As well as ES5 syntax such as prototype: { get href() { which can't be polyfilled at run-time.
