This could be deprecated in favor of uri-common/uri-generic.
I don't see a big problem with them existing together, but if possible
please use these. They have a much bigger testsuite and are probably
much more compliant to the RFC.

This egg was already marked 'Unsupported or redundant' in
Eggs Unlimited 3. We should take this opportunity to put it down for good.

since sxml-tools is many things all rolled into one. It's better to
separate the bloat a bit.
