set_user(core::string_view s);

== Description


This function sets the user part of the        userinfo to the string.        Any special or reserved characters in the        string are automatically percent‐encoded.

----
assert( url().set_user("john doe").encoded_userinfo() == "john%20doe" );
----

=== Postconditions

----
this->has_authority() == true && this->has_userinfo() == true

=== Complexity

Linear in `this‐>size() + s.size()`.


=== Exception Safety

Strong guarantee.        Calls to allocate may throw.


=== BNF

[,cpp]
----
userinfo      = [ [ user ] [ ':' password ] ]

user          = *( unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims )
password      = *( unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims / ":" )
