Support passing an `URL` instance

It'd be handy if fetch()
could also accept a URL
instance as the source;
const url = new URL('...');
const data = await fetch(url);
Currently this throws an error:
TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "data" argument must be of type string or an instance of Buffer, TypedArray, or DataView. Received an instance of URL
Using URL
to generate the source URL can be a common use case, in case you need to safely add query parameters, or control the base/host of the request between environments.
I know it's an easy fix to use url.toString()
instead, but it can be a gotcha - it'd be a nifty ergonomic improvement if this was handled automagically!

v5.0 will support anything that can be converted via toString
