New description:

 wp_parse_url()] was introduced in #34408 to get around URL parsing
 failures of PHP's [https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.parse-url
 parse_url()] in PHP < 5.4.7.

 With the minimum supported PHP for core now 5.6.20, `wp_parse_url()` no
 longer seems necessary and `parse_url()` can be used directly.  For
 background on this ticket, see the

 thread].
