fix(agent): strip URL userinfo in scan and bbot ingestion

scanURL kept the userinfo of httpx, ffuf and nuclei URLs, so a line such
as http://user:pass@host/path stored the credentials in assets.url, in
the notable items and in the facts. scanURL now drops u.User before
re-serializing; scheme, host, port, path and query are kept.

The nuclei fact detail also embedded the raw host and matched-at values,
the httpx detail the raw host and the ffuf detail the raw redirect
location. They now go through stripUserinfo, which removes only the
userinfo of a URL or bare host:port and keeps every other byte, so a
value without userinfo is unchanged and fact deduplication is the same.

bbotTyped drops the userinfo of the typed url of an in-scope URL event
before it becomes an asset.

Rows already stored with userinfo are not rewritten here.
