uri: fix roundtrip for file:// uris

uri = gst_uri_from_string ("file:///path/to/foo.bar");
  string = gst_uri_to_string (uri);

would return "file:/path/to/foo.bar".

Slashes get lost somewhere.

Setting the hostname to "" after gst_uri_from_string() "fixes" it.

Attached patch fixes it also without making any of the other unit tests fail,
but it's pretty much cargo-culted without real understanding.

Question is if this is something that needs to be fixed serialisation-side or
parsing-side I guess.
