Re: testing for a remote file to include file on a Windows mapped drive

That's irrelevant: look at the uses, and you'll see that most of them
use file-remote-p in the sense described in the docstring, so all that's
needed is to provide an implementation for the unhandled files.

This may require some changes in file-relative-name, because this one
does use file-remote-p in a more specific way, but everything else I've
looked at uses file-remote-p as a way to test "fast&reliable or not".
