A03: Validate scheme/host/port before every network I/O

- _validate_url_before_io: check scheme (HTTPS only), port (80/443), host
- fetch_html: recursive redirect validation with hop limit (MAX_REDIRECT_HOPS=5)
- Reject non-HTTPS redirects and non-standard ports
- All validation happens BEFORE urlopen() call
- Updated tests for new validation messages
- 109 Python tests pass
