I don't think exposing such a struct in the API and expecting users to handle
it correctly is a good idea, as I think it's a bit too error-prone.

That API wouldn't support URL encoding/decoding of the parts - which I
believe users will want.

It would also miss some of the features libcurl itself uses (like path-as-is
disallow user) - which would make harder for us to switch to this API
internally.
