Messenger refuses all file:///data/ uris

We've been informed it's possible for an app to create a world
readable hardlink in L in its own /data directory that links to
another apps private data, including Messenger data. The hardlink
bypassed our existing checks. So now we simply refuse all file: uris
in the /data/ directory.
Other apps shouldn't be sending file uris anyway, and we dont know
of any that send file:///data/ uris.
