This is a proposed fix for michaelrsweet#508. The screenshot illustrates the use case. After converting an online HTML document to PDF (using the command shown in michaelrsweet#507), open the output file in a PDF viewer, scroll down to the link in the screenshot, and click the link. Without this commit the PDF viewer, then the browser, open "http://remote.../file://...", and fail. With this commit the "file://" method is preserved, so the browser can successfully open a local file. ![screenshot](https://github.com/michaelrsweet/htmldoc/assets/1414102/814f30a0-f417-46eb-8390-a94542162050)
