/**
 * @description Validator for checking if a string is a valid URL
 * @summary The URLValidator checks if a string matches a standard URL pattern.
 * It extends the PatternValidator and uses a robust URL regex pattern to validate web addresses.
 * The pattern is sourced from {@link https://gist.github.com/dperini/729294} and is widely
 * recognized for its accuracy in validating URLs. This validator is typically used with the @url decorator.
 *
 * @param {string} [message] - Custom error message to display when validation fails, defaults to {@link DEFAULT_ERROR_MESSAGES#URL}
 *
 * @class URLValidator
 * @extends PatternValidator
 *
 * @example
 * ```typescript
 * // Create a URL validator with default error message
 * const urlValidator = new URLValidator();
 *
 * // Create a URL validator with custom error message
 * const customUrlValidator = new URLValidator("Please enter a valid web address");
 *
 * // Validate a URL
 * const result = urlValidator.hasErrors("https://example.com"); // undefined (valid)
 * const invalidResult = urlValidator.hasErrors("not-a-url"); // Returns error message (invalid)
 * ```
