// We handle some special browser-level URLs (like "about:version")
// before they're handed to a renderer.  This lets us do the URL handling
// on the browser side (which has access to more information than the
// renderers do) as well as sidestep the risk of exposing data to
// random web pages (because from the resource loader's perspective, these
// URL schemes don't exist).
