GitHub's Backend lacks website URL validation

The input field for the repository's website URL is

<input type="url">

which tells the browser to enforce a valid URL in the input. But a quick usage of inspect element allows you to input a much wider range of values.

There are some limitations. When attempting to put the Jack O' Lantern emoji (🎃), I discovered that characters with codes greater than 0xFFFF aren't allowed.
