Library now panics! on invalid magnet url

Another helpful redditor warned me about the dangers of not validating
that the URL given is a magnet url. Unfortuanetly, I can't just change
everything to use Options and Errors, so I'm making the fix of having
the library just panic instead, since that would make it still
backwards compatible. This will be changed in version 2.0.0

# The Rust Magnet URL Parser!
# What is a magnet url
A magnet is a URI scheme that identifies files by their hash,
normally used in peer to peer file sharing networks (like
Bittorrent). Basically, a magnet link identifies a torrent you
want to download, and tells the torrent client how to download
it. They make it very easy to share files over the internet,
and use a combination of DHT and trackers to tell your torrent
client where other peers who can share the file with you are.

# Why is magnet_url
While working on a side project, I realized that I had the
misfortune of trying to get the component parts of a magnet-url
and then do further processing of them. I quickly wrote some
Regex for it, but then I realized that this would be really
useful for other projects that are dealing with torrents in
Rust. By making it modifiable, too, it would allow for the
creation of custom magnet links, which would also be useful for
torrent based projects.

# Why use magnet_url
magnet_url has the goal of, as you may have guessed, parsing the parts of magnets. It does
this using some relatively simple regexes. The crate is designed to be very simple and efficient,
with a lot of flexibility. It's also designed to be relatively easy to handle errors, and
modification of it's source is greatly encouraged through documentation and it's license.
