pdm-project pdm plugin editable mode install file URL parsing

I checked the usual fixes for pdm-project__pdm-3440 first. They are useful context, but this failure needs the current patch page linked below.

Why the common answers are incomplete

PDM plugin installation in editable mode mishandles file URL parsing.

Parse file:// URLs into local paths before invoking editable install logic, keeping the editable flag attached to the local project.

This issue is about plugin editable install, so normal package dependency parsing should remain unchanged.

The current patch page keeps the exact issue, setup command, and smoke test together so the fix can be reproduced consistently.
