File paths can be broken

Problem/Motivation

A URL to a file can be accidentally broken.

Steps to reproduce

Use a file's URL in a link field, in certain circumstances the URL will be changed in unwanted ways.

Proposed resolution

After stripping off the protocol and hostname, check to see if the path is a valid file, if so just return it as-is.

Remaining tasks

• Write test coverage for how files are handled.
• Build the necessary changes to how file URLs are handled.
