Send only the Referer's scheme and host to Sentry (closes #548)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s

A Sentry event kept the Referer header verbatim, and a Referer can be
an entrypoint URL: a sender that follows the README's http:// to
https:// redirect sends the URL it was redirected from, and a browser
sends the 404 page's URL under /h/ when it fetches that page's
stylesheet. The Sentry hook now keeps only the Referer's scheme and
host. The access log's reduction moves, unchanged, into a new package,
internal/referer, as SchemeAndHost; the access log and the Sentry hook
both call it there. The comment above sentryKeepsHeader and the
README's Sentry passage say so.
