Use nodejs implementation of url parse instead of WHATWG URL in case of support git+ssh protocol

Closes #5278
@Delagen can you add a test to show this working with currently unsupported URL types?
@fritzy I think I will spend too much time trying understand how tests work in this project
I found details it not work only with non github url For example: private Gitlab
#works npm i git+ssh://[email protected]:chalk/chalk.git#v5.0.1
#fail npm i git+ssh://[email protected]:group/repo.git#branch
npm ERR! code ERR_INVALID_URL npm ERR! Invalid URL
Seems it does not support colon inside npm i git+ssh://[email protected]/group/repo.git#branch Works
@Delagen good point the npm project is since long time not in shape anymore i also did no pull requests for all the issues any more as i do not aggree with the overall project handling my suggestion is download .patch files from github and let this issue open then write that you need help with the pull request and some one who is familar with the project will jump in.
i created for my self a new npm package under my @scrope and there i put simply inside the package.json the git patches after install that is a good method to not be blocked by the npm project management it self. hope it helps you
Thanks for the PR to fix this. We didn't want to land something using a deprecated Node API, so I was able to add a method to our package that we use for parsing git host shorthands, so it can also parse urls: https://github.com/npm/hosted-git-info/pull/176
This should land as part of #5758 which will fully close this bug.
in general as this is needed i only want to leave a comment for the next generation. If you find such issues again never do a package for that rule of thumb if your package maintainance code is more then 200% of your own code create a new file in a existing repo most best create a folder that you call /modules/module-name/module-name.js
call it a day.
