[issue8721] urlparse.urlsplit regression in 2.7

[Senthil Kumaran]

FWIW, it should also be noted that RFC asserts square brackets to be
valid characters in the hostname portion only and that too when it is
a IPv6 url. 

In the example given, at the query portion, it should be quoted (or
percent-encoded)
