The location service, and other portions of the application,
were relying on a complicated regular expression to get parts of a URL.
But there is already a private urlUtils provider,
which relies on HTMLAnchorElement to provide this information,
and is suitable for most cases.
In order to make urlUtils more accessible in the absence of DI,
its methods were converted to standalone functions available globally.
The urlUtils.resolve method was renamed urlResolve,
and was refactored to only take 1 argument, url,
and not the 2nd "parse" boolean.
The method now always returns a parsed url.
All places in code which previously wanted a string instead of a parsed
url can now get the value from the href property of the returned object.
Tests were also added to ensure IPv6 addresses were handled correctly.

This is a breaking change. To migrate to the new behavior,
delete or set headers to `undefined` to avoid having them sent.
To restore the old behavior, override `$httpBackendProvider`
with the old implementation.
Closes#2984
The `XMLHttpRequest.send` spec defines different semantics for `null`
than for an empty String: an empty String should be sent with a
`Content-Type` of `text/plain`, whereas `null` should have no
`Content-Type` header set.
Closes#2149
If the timeout argument is a promise, abort the request when it is resolved.
Implemented by adding support to $httpBackend service and $httpBackend mock
service.
This api can also be used to explicitly abort requests while keeping the
communication between the deffered and promise unidirectional.
Closes#1159
Documentation implies that timeout works for all requests, though it
only works with XHR. To implement:
- Change $httpBackend to set a timeout for JSONP requests which will
immediately resolve the request when fired.
- Cancel the timeout when requests are completed.

In FF getAllResponseHeaders() returns null if the request is the result of CORS.
Tried to format the code so that when a FF patch is released and gains enough
traction it can easily be selected and deleted. Heavily inspired by jQuery's
patch for the same bug. This patch falls short of passing through custom headers
but covers all of the "simple response headers" in the spec at
http://www.w3.org/TR/cors/
This commit should get reverted once Firefox 21 gets out.
Closes#1468
this was never meant to be a public api used by apps. I refactored
the code to hide the functionality.
BREAKING CHANGE: $browser.addJs method was removed
apps that depended on this functionality should either use many of the
existing script loaders or create a simple helper method specific to the
app.
