### URLJoin
Joins all given URL segments together, then normalizes the resulting URL.
Use `String.join('/')` to combine URL segments, then a series of `String.replace()` calls with various regexps to normalize the resulting URL (remove double slashes, add proper slashes for protocol, remove slashes before parameters, combine parameters with `'&'` and normalize first parameter delimiter).
```js
const URLJoin = (...args) =>
args.join('/')
.replace(/[\/]+/g,'/')
.replace(/^(.+):\//,'$1://')
.replace(/^file:/,'file:/')
.replace(/\/(\?|&|#[^!])/g, '$1')
.replace(/\?/g,'&')
.replace('&','?');
```
```js
URLJoin('http://www.google.com', 'a', '/b/cd', '?foo=123', '?bar=foo'); // 'http://www.google.com/a/b/cd?foo=123&bar=foo'
```
