Remove kludgy URL detection/munging code

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The block of code in base.py that detects the presence of '://', canonicalizes 
the path, and preprends 'file://', should just all be removed. It serves no 
purpose. Just document that the path must be in URL form; that's the way suds 
works, for better or for worse. There's no point trying to hack around it. Also 
it pretty much breaks this module on windows.

This module does break on windows as-is, but I fixed it simply by adding 
another / to the prepended file:// (I only figured this out when I noticed my 
browser turned file:// into file:///).
