URL is not exposed as a global object

Calling URL.createObjectURL() is not possible as URL is only a trait. It should be exposed as a global object for easy access to its static methods.

Workaround is to implement the object in your own code as

@js.native
object URL extends dom.URL

The fix (ac070db) removed the trait, which removed access to the constructor, which seems to be a regression. Instead of replacing the URL trait with the object definition, the trait should be brought back and maybe also some of URL's properties should be exposed.

See https://url.spec.whatwg.org/#api and
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URL/URL.

The trait did not give access to the constructor. The non-"static" (and experimental) part of URL has never been there. So the fix you mention did not remove anything that was there before.

Feel free to open a separate issue (and PR) for the missing non-static parts.

Ah, right. Just saw I had a class implementing the trait. Will submit a PR
