Bill Fenner 81797980f7 search.cpan.org redirect reduction canonicalization project, pass 1:
URLs automatically rewritten from /search?dist=Foo or /dist/Foo
to /dist/Foo/ (note trailing slash).  After a 2002(!) reorganization,
this is the preferred way to refer to modules on search.cpan.org.

This module does one thing: finds URIs and URLs in plain text. It
finds them quickly and it finds them all (or what URI::URL considers
a URI to be). It employs a series of heuristics too:
- Find schemeless URIs (ie. www.foo.com)
- Avoid picking up trailing characters from the text
- Avoid picking up URL-like things such as Perl module names.
