 Regexes used to chop off the protocol of a URL should be anchored to the
 start of the string.

 1. The regex fails faster and thus avoid useless work. No need to look
 further down the URL for strings like `"http://"`.
 2. The regex should not alter any URLs that might be contained in the
 query string.
