Support ill formatted UNC paths containing backslashes #41

We've seen some machines with PAC configuration where the url to the PAC file 
is of the form:

file://\\servername\path\to\file.pac

These can't be read because the backslashes are probably not supported by 
windows. 

Since it's difficult to have control over the machines where the software is 
installed, any change of being resilient to this configuration error by 
replacing all backslashes with forward slashes in the PAC url?

Based on the 20121203 source code, I would fix this in 
UrlPacScriptSource.java:79

file = new File(new URL(scriptUrl).toURI());

would become:

file = new File(new URL(scriptUrl.replaceAll("\\\\", "/")).toURI());
