bug#27333: URL History can't handle records

Since the change to records a few months ago, I've seen a bug with 
`url-history-save-history'.  When I try to run it, I see:

Error running timer ‘url-history-save-history’: (wrong-type-argument stringp 
#s(url "https" nil nil "duckduckgo.com" nil "/html/?q=emacs" nil nil t nil t))

A backtrace puts it at the `string-match' call in `url-history-save-history'.  
I think the problem is that url-history is using a url struct instead of a 
string, which, according to `url-history-update-url', isn't supposed to be 
happening.

The following patch should fix this:

diff --git a/lisp/url/url-history.el b/lisp/url/url-history.el
index 1fa085400d..af52d5861e 100644
