curl_url_set: reject spaces in URLs w/o CURLU_ALLOW_SPACE
They were never officially allowed and slipped in only due to sloppy
parsing. Spaces (ascii 32) should be correctly encoded (to %20) before
being part of a URL.
The new flag bit CURLU_ALLOW_SPACE when a full URL is set, makes libcurl
allow spaces.
Updated test 1560 to verify.
Closes #7073
