Can not load dict from external URL

[georgeOsdDev]

We are trying to use kuromoji.js with kuromojin on browser. When we use external url as dicPath option, double slash is normalized by path.join.

> require("path").join("http://external-url.com/dict", "base.dat.gz");
'http:/external-url.com/dict/base.dat.gz'

So XMLHttpRequest will go to https://mydomain.com/external-url.com/dict/base.dat.gz And fail to load dict.
