* lisp/ffap.el (ffap-read-file-or-url): Use `read-file-name`

Since we use `url-handler-mode` to deal with URLs, `read-file-name`
works just as well, with the added benefit that it interacts correctly
with packages that rebind `read-file-name-function`, such as Helm.

(ffap-read-url-internal, ffap-read-file-or-url-internal): Remove, unused.
