/**
 * URLStreamHandler for reference protocol.  A reference URL is used to hold a 
 * reference to a local file URL.  A reference URL allows bundles to be installed
 * by reference.  This means the content of the bundle will not be copied.  Instead
 * the content of the bundle will be loaded from the reference location specified
 * by the reference URL.  The Framework only supports reference URLs that refer
 * to a local file URL.  For example: <p>
 * <pre>
 *     reference:file:/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.myplugin_1.0.0/
 *     reference:file:/eclispe/plugins/org.eclipse.mybundle_1.0.0.jar
