Entering a full URL into the Add Service dialog

Currently in the Remote Files dialog, when you add a new WebDAV service
separate parts of the URL have to be entered in different fields, which is not
very user friendly.

We need to consider that some popular groupware suites such as NextCloud give
users a single URL like
https://nextcloud.documentfoundation.org/remote.php/dav/files/kelemeng/ - LO
should be able to recognize this.

1. Open Remote Files dialog
2. From the top right Manage Services dropdown select Add Service
3. Select the WebDAV type, in the Host field enter the above full URL, but do
not change anything else
4. Close the dialog. You should get a password prompt, but you won't.
5. Reopen the settings from Manage services - Edit service

Now the fields are a complete mess:
- Host field contains "https" instead of nextcloud.documentfoundation.org
- Port field contains "80"  instead of 443
- Root field contains
"//nextcloud.documentfoundation.org/remote.php/dav/files/kelemeng/" instead of
/remote.php/dav/files/kelemeng/

The UI should detect what is what in a full WebDAV-share URL, and fill in
fields accordingly.

Also happens in al versions back to when the RF dialog was added in 4.1 or
about so.
