Static method for dealing with file: URLs.
This class defines a static method that can be used to construct
an appropriate file: URL from parts. It's defined here so that it
can be reused throught the resolver.
(Yes, I'd rather have called this class FileURI, but
given that a jave.net.URL is returned, it seemed...even more
confusing.)

Construct a file: URL for a path name.
URLs in the file: scheme can be constructed for paths on
the local file system. Several possibilities need to be considered:


If the path does not begin with a slash, then it is assumed
to reside in the users current working directory
(System.getProperty("user.dir")).
On Windows machines, the current working directory uses
backslashes (\\, instead of /).
If the current working directory is "/", don't add an extra
slash before the base name.

This method is declared static so that other classes
can use it directly.
Params:
pathname – The path name component for which to construct a URL.
Throws:
MalformedURLException – if the pathname can't be turned into
        a proper URL.
Returns:
The appropriate file: URL./**
