fix: look for URL in channel before falling back to default (#440)

This fixes #344 and
makes it possible to connect to staging services with w3ui.

This PR obsoletes #404
per @alanshaw's suggestion in
#404 (comment)
based on reasoning in
storacha/ucanto#214 (comment)
which points out that some sort of conditional or casting is probably
unavoidable here.

My solution casts the channel to have an optional `url` field and looks
in that field for a URL before falling back to the default `HOST`.

Have tested this locally with w3ui and verified it makes it possible to
connect to staging services from w3ui - huzzah!
