Fix handling of file: paths to non-existent files

For setAsText, if the text argument is a file: URL for a path that does not exist, Paths.get(text) is called where text is a file: URL, which doesn't work - the result is an InvalidPathException.

To fix this issue, also check that the resource isn't a file before calling Paths.get(). That way, resources that are files skip to the other branch.

Closes gh-26575
