Description

LocalJobRunner#getLocalTaskDir creates a directory that is unique to the task ID. The logic of this method concatenates the local job dir and a task-specific path, but one of the arguments is a Path with a scheme, so the final result has "file:" embedded in it. This works on Linux, but the ':' is an invalid character in a file name on Windows.
