*
* - If the {@code FileLocator} has a defined URL, this URL is used as the file's URL (without any further
* checks).
* - Otherwise, base path and file name stored in the {@code FileLocator} are passed to the current
* {@code FileSystem}'s {@code locateFromURL()} method. If this results in a URL, it is returned.
* - Otherwise, if the locator's file name is an absolute path to an existing file, the URL of this file is
* returned.
* - Otherwise, the concatenation of base path and file name is constructed. If this path points to an existing file,
* its URL is returned.
* - Otherwise, a sub directory of the current user's home directory as defined by the base path is searched for the
* referenced file. If the file can be found there, its URL is returned.
* - Otherwise, the base path is ignored, and the file name is searched in the current user's home directory. If the
* file can be found there, its URL is returned.
* - Otherwise, a resource with the name of the locator's file name is searched in the classpath. If it can be found,
* its URL is returned.
