    // @todo Wrap in file_url_transform_relative(). This is currently
    // impossible. As a work-around, we currently add the 'url.site' cache context
    // to ensure different file URLs are generated for different sites in a
    // multisite setup, including HTTP and HTTPS versions of the same site.
    // Fix in https://www.drupal.org/node/2646744.
    $url = $file->createFileUrl(FALSE);
