    Handle database names with `/` in them

    [Original issue](https://github.com/dscape/nano/issues/291)
    
    __BigBlueHat__
    Right now, if I give couchdb-push (which depends on nano) a URL like http://localhost:5984/mail/bigbluehat-com/byoung it throws the following error:
    
    ```javascript
    ...\node_modules\couchdb-push\node_modules\couchdb-ensure\index.js:12
      couch.request({
            ^
    TypeError: undefined is not a function
    ```
    
    If I escape them, however, things work as they should: http://localhost:5984/mail%2Fbigbluehat-com%2Fbyoung
    
    Obviously the escaped version is what CouchDB actually wants, but it'd be nice for the developer to not have to care that much--or go figure out what's needed from that error.
    
    Having this as part of the library would save a bunch of URL parsing boilerplate in other people's code too, fwiw.
    
    Thanks!
