Issue description

Would like to send a file from a local filesystem.

file = attachments.File(url="file://./file.txt")
client.send(file.to_dict(), recipient_id=user_id, messaging_type='RESPONSE')

Steps to reproduce

the above code returns "(#100) file://./file.txt should represent a valid URL)"
also tried other variations of file:// syntax as well as simply ./file.txt and file.txt

Traceback or other info

• fbmessenger version: master@commit
• python version: 3.7
• Facebook Messenger API version: 13

Thanks!
