Escape ~ in hostname and TLD

While parsing URL, an extra if is added if the character is a tilde, and
the course of action taken is to treat it as escape character

This allows https://goo~gle.com to be interpreted as URL which should
help Chrome mimic Safari behaviour (which does the same thing).

However, the same cannot be said for goo~gle.com
