This appears to be because the dom to box conversion fails when broken urls are processed instead of our previous behaviour of swallowing the garbage wholesale

nsurl_create now fails with NSERROR_BAD_URL if something invalid/garbage is fed in. Unfortunately this is causing the box creation to abort, rather than NULLing the link ref and continuing with the bad URL removed.

On further investigation, box_extract_link isn't handling NSERROR_BAD_URL, and nsurl_join is translating the NSERROR_BAD_URL to NSERROR_NOMEM, so it wouldn't see it anyway.

I have made nsurl_join cope with the host part of a url not being valid IDNA by falling back to the old method of simply using the broken hostname as is (same behaviour on chrome and firefox)

Can people check and see if this fixes the issue for them

Made nsurl_join cope with IDNA being unable to parse an (invalid) hostname. This prevents errors being reported to the box tree generation as box_extract_link cannot cope at all.
