org.testng.xml.Parser chokes on file: URI reference

If the test suite definition file is specified using a file: URI value, java.io.IOException is thrown, indicating that

“The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect”

e.g. >java -cp ./testng-6.5.1.jar org.testng.TestNG "file:///C:/TEMP/testng.xml"

A suggested fix is to replace line 148 in org.testng.xml.Parser with

147 if (m_fileName != null) {
148     File mainFile = (m_fileName.startsWith("file:"))
                ? new File(URI.create(m_fileName)) : new File(m_fileName);

Let me see if I can send a PR that addresses this.

@krmahadevan I think we just have to try to convert the string to URI (convert it to “file://” if fails) and provide the URI to ISuiteParser:

boolean accept(URI uri);
