Revert "url: improve port validation"

This reverts commit 5f7730e.

This change broke too many edge cases in the ecosystem. Reverting it
re-introduces some host-spoofing possibilities, so we won't want to
revert forever, but the issue is long-lived enough and not sufficiently
critical that we can't wait for a major release to introduce it as a
breaking change. After this lands, I plan to re-introduce this as a
change that throws a warning rather than an error, after which we can
land a semver-major that re-introduces the error and try to get the word
out to maintainers of likely-affected packages.
