Skip file URLs with a UNC authority.

On Windows, file://server/share/repo.git can name a file-share repository. Its authority prevents the skip, so selection returns null. With a marked origin and an upstream, the fallback can select upstream instead of the marked repository.

Suggested fix 

-    if (parseGitRemoteRepository(remote.url) === null && parseGitRemoteHost(remote.url) === null) {
+    if (
+      /^file:\/\//i.test(remote.url) ||
+      (parseGitRemoteRepository(remote.url) === null && parseGitRemoteHost(remote.url) === null)
+    ) {

Add the UNC URL to the existing selection test:

           ["file", "file:///tmp/local.git"],
+          ["share", "file://server/share/repo.git"],

Review comment at @packages/source-control-github/src/server/gitHubRepositoryResolution.ts at line 34:
Update the remote-selection condition using parseGitRemoteRepository and parseGitRemoteHost so file URLs with a UNC authority, such as file://server/share/repo.git, are skipped as candidates. Preserve existing handling for other remotes so fallback selection cannot replace a marked repository with its upstream.

Keep single-component SCP remotes in the ambiguity check.

Git accepts build.example.com:repo.git as an SSH remote, but both parsers return null for it. The new condition skips it, so selection can use a marked GitHub origin instead of the previous fallback to upstream. This can change the PR base repository.

Distinguish local paths from this SCP form, and add it to the existing ambiguous-remotes test.

Review comment at @packages/source-control-github/src/server/gitHubRepositoryResolution.ts at line 34:
Update the remote ambiguity check so a single-component SCP remote such as build.example.com:repo.git remains ambiguous rather than being treated as a local path; preserve the existing upstream fallback when resolving the PR base repository. Add this case to the existing ambiguous-remotes test, distinguishing SCP syntax from local paths without changing other remote-resolution behavior.
