validator Make `url` and `http_url` work with url.URL.

Fixes Or Enhances

This makes the url and http_url validations work with url.URL or any newtype that implements the Stringer interface. I'm not familiar with the codebase so it's kind of a PoC PR to see if you think this can be useful.

Make sure that you've checked the boxes below before you submit PR:

[x] Tests exist or have been written that cover this particular change.

But they don't pass, if this is a feature we want and it's the right approach I can investigate deeper. I suspect the reflection magic isn't working as I expected.

I've added a few comments suggesting readability improvements. I recommend keeping the original test functions unchanged and adding new ones for the Stringer type. Also, ensure the GitHub Actions checks pass.

I rebased to include #1444 and tweaked it a bit.
