The scenario is that I have a hostname boing in /etc/hosts pointing to 127.0.0.1 , and I port-forward to the real host.

I did this

$ curl boing:80
curl: (3) URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL

and if I did:
$ curl http://boing:80
it worked

I expected the following

I expected it to actually issue the request, but to illustrate the change from a previous version, if I hadn't defined boing in /etc/hosts, I'd get this:
$ curl boing:80
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: boing

And curiously a curl boing will try to resolve boing with recursing over a dot less name.

The function identifying a leading "scheme" part of the URL considered a few
letters ending with a colon to be a scheme, making something like "short:80"
to become an unknown scheme instead of a short host name and a port number.

Extended test 1560 to verify.

Also fix test203 to use posix_pwd to make it get the correct path on windows

commit d9abebc reverted the fix temporarily since it broke tests on windows. #3235 should ideally fix it "proper".
