Url parse had some security&performance issues we'd like to be rid of. The library itself recommend we switch to just using the built in URL. However we discovered that only safari could handle non-standard protocols (such as bolt://). So we moved to using a polyfil library instead (so that we avoid the security issues and can just remove the dependency, when and if chrome&firefox add proper support for other protocols).
I had to add a workaround in the tests setup to get the tests to pass, I think the new dependency requires node 16, or it seems that way from this issue at least. We should look into upgrading our minimum node version and remove the workaround.
