URL is not standard

URL is not common everywhere - adding this resolves a bug in some setups

Hi @Bohdan-Anderson-Rangle,

URL became a global object with Node.js 10.0.0. Also, it is standard, see the WHATWG specification here and the W3C one here. That being said, it is possible that it is not implemented everywhere (which is different from not being standard).

tsc finds the type of URL as a global object if you use either:

• @types/node, providing the version is recent enough.
• The --lib dom flag (which is enabled by default).

Is the setup that you're using missing one of those?

This was an issue before, but it should be fixed now. See: sindresorhus/globby#230

100% it was an issue with my tsconfig thank you for calling that out.
