If a user configured data_collector.server_url in their Chef config
as an empty string, we blissfully passed it along to Chef::HTTP
which would eventually raise a TypeError when trying to dup the
URI's host. This change validates the server_url when setting up
the Data Collector and gives helpful error messages to the user.
We also count Errno::EHOSTDOWN as an error worthy of disabling
the Data Collector reporter for a given run if the user so chooses.
