fix: add a maximum length for the URL

The regular expression used to parse the URL provided by the user has a
time complexity of O(n^2), hence the length limitation.

Please note that this does not seem realistically exploitable, as an
attacker would have to be able to provide a malicious URL to the user
and inject it in the Engine.IO client.

We could also have:

- modified the regex, but there are a lot of edge cases and the current test coverage is probably not sufficient
- use the built-in URL object, but we would have to add a polyfill for old platforms like IE

Thanks to Young-jin Hwang from the Soonchunhyang University for the
responsible disclosure.
