Our `IconDownloader` extended `BaseImageDownloader` from UIL. There was an explicit check in the F-Droid `IconDownloader` which looks for HTTP/HTTPS/Bluetooth schemes. If it wasn't one of these, it fell back to the base class. This was what was happening for local cached image files. As such, when the `getInputStream(...)` method was refactored to only use F-Droids `DownloadFactory` and not delegate to the base class, it failed on local "file://" URLs. This change introduces a `LocalFileDownloader` and makes the `DownloaderFactory` aware of it. The `BaseImageDownloader` class only provides support for the following schemes: * HTTP * HTTPS * File * Android content providers * Android assets * Android drawables F-Droid now supports HTTP, HTTPS, and File URLs. There is not currently any need for content proiders, assets or drawables to get icons for apps in F-Droid. If there is a need in the future (e.g. an issue currently discusses loading icons from installed apps if possible) then that specific `Downloader` can get introduced to solve the problem.
