     * output needs to be a plain-text string for passing to functions that will
     * call Html::escape() separately. The exact behavior depends on the value:
     * - If the value is a well-formed (per RFC 3986) relative URL or
     *   absolute URL that does not use a dangerous protocol (like
     *   "javascript:"), then the URL remains unchanged. This includes all
     *   URLs generated via Url::toString() and UrlGeneratorTrait::url().
     * - If the value is a well-formed absolute URL with a dangerous protocol,
     *   the protocol is stripped. This process is repeated on the remaining URL
     *   until it is stripped down to a safe protocol.
     * - If the value is not a well-formed URL, the same sanitization behavior as
     *   for well-formed URLs will be invoked, which strips most substrings that
     *   precede a ":". The result can be used in URL attributes such as "href"
     *   or "src" (only after calling Html::escape() separately), but this may not
     *   produce valid HTML (for example, malformed URLs within "href" attributes
     *   fail HTML validation). This can be avoided by using
     *   Url::fromUri($possibly_not_a_url)->toString(), which either throws an
     *   exception or returns a well-formed URL.
