Using the `call_arena` here is unsafe in the case of a failure. It's possible for the call_arena to be reset during module processing, making the log crash. The issue is that the lifetime of a URL is often conditional. If the stitched URL has already been seen (i.e. is in the module_cache), then it can be short- lived. EXCEPT, URL.stitch might require an allocation..and then you start to think, well, if URL.stitch is going to allocate anyways...If we stitch with the `page.arena`, and end up not needing a long lifetime, we've wasted memory. If we stitch with `page.call_arena` and end up needing a long lifetime, we need to dupe. It's a bit messy, and I'd like to take a stab at improving it after: #1127. I'm thinking that we need a URL intern pool. HashMap with a composite key of base + path -> resolved. Then all URLs are resolved using the page.arena, but we don't have any duplicates, so it isn't wasteful.
