> Please review this test-only PR which introduces testing of the unspecified but long-standing fallback to FTP for non-local files in the 'file' URL scheme.
>
> This in preparation for the upcoming proposal to disable the feature by default in JDK-8353440.
>
> Since we cannot reliably bind an FTP server to port 21, the test instead uses an HTTP proxy, binding to an ephemeral port. This menas we don't test non-proxy code paths. We still test that the FTP fallback is used, which is the key point here. (We aim to test file URL connections, not FTP URL connection internals)
>
> An alternative here could be to just verify that the returned URLConnection is an instance of FtpURLConnection. However, I opted for an end-to-end test here, since the amount of extra code seems reasonable.
>
> By temporarly moving this test to tier1, I was able to confirm this test runs green also on Windows GHA.
