Adds a url sync component

Sam Beckham requested to merge 10703-url-sync-component into master

What does this MR do?

This adds a <url-sync /> component that behaves in a similar way to the urlsync mixin. It's a bit easier to use and doesn't hide away as much magic as mixins tend to do.

The url component takes a query parameter and watches it. Whenever anything in the query object changes, it parses the object, puts the query in the URL, and pushes a history entry.

One example where this is useful is when filtering results on a page. I've wired up that example and recorded a bit of a walkthrough below.
