// url_formatter contains routines for formatting URLs in a way that can be
// safely and securely displayed to users. For example, it is responsible
// for determining when to convert an IDN A-Label (e.g. "xn--[something]")
// into the IDN U-Label.
//
// Note that this formatting is only intended for display purposes; it would
// be insecure and insufficient to make comparisons solely on formatted URLs
// (that is, it should not be used for normalizing URLs for comparison for
// security decisions).

// Creates a string representation of |url|. The IDN host name is turned to
// Unicode if the Unicode representation is deemed safe. |format_type| is a
// bitmask of FormatUrlTypes, see it for details. |unescape_rules| defines how
// to clean the URL for human readability. You will generally want
// |UnescapeRule::SPACES| for display to the user if you can handle spaces, or
// |UnescapeRule::NORMAL| if not. If the path part and the query part seem to
// be encoded in %-encoded UTF-8, decodes %-encoding and UTF-8.
//
// The last three parameters may be NULL.
//
// |new_parsed| will be set to the parsing parameters of the resultant URL.
//
// |prefix_end| will be the length before the hostname of the resultant URL.
//
// |offset[s]_for_adjustment| specifies one or more offsets into the original
// URL, representing insertion or selection points between characters: if the
// input is "http://foo.com/", offset 0 is before the entire URL, offset 7 is
// between the scheme and the host, and offset 15 is after the end of the URL.
// Valid input offsets range from 0 to the length of the input URL string.  On
// exit, each offset will have been modified to reflect any changes made to the
// output string.  For example, if |url| is "http://a:b@c.com/",
// |omit_username_password| is true, and an offset is 12 (pointing between 'c'
// and '.'), then on return the output string will be "http://c.com/" and the
// offset will be 8.  If an offset cannot be successfully adjusted (e.g. because
// it points into the middle of a component that was entirely removed or into
// the middle of an encoding sequence), it will be set to base::string16::npos.
// For consistency, if an input offset points between the scheme and the
// username/password, and both are removed, on output this offset will be 0
// rather than npos; this means that offsets at the starts and ends of removed
// components are always transformed the same way regardless of what other
// components are adjacent.
