  - ### getEmbeddedResourceURLs

    Iterator<URL> getEmbeddedResourceURLs(String userAgent, byte[] responseData, URL baseUrl, String encoding) throws LinkExtractorParseException

    URLs should not appear twice in the returned iterator.

    Malformed URLs can be reported to the caller by having the Iterator return the corresponding RL String. Overall problems parsing the html should be reported by throwing an HTMLParseException.

      `responseData` - Response data
      `baseUrl` - Base URL from which the HTML code was obtained
      `encoding` - Charset
