While we're in the area then it would be nice to eliminate the use of
Class::newInstance too - if each of the built-in protocol handlers is
public with a public no-arg constructor then
getConstructor().newInstance() should do it.
To be perfectly compatible I think
.getDeclaredConstructor().newInstance() should be used:

This looks okay. Using getConstructor should work here too because this
is the built-in protocol handlers. I think the only compatibility
concern with getConstructor in this code path would be if someone
deploys a custom protocol handler in the sun.net.* tree via
-Xbootclasspath/p or by patches a java.* or jdk.* module that is mapped
to the boot loader and the protocol handler doesn't have a public no-arg
constructor. If they set java.protocol.handlers.pkgs property then it
uses lookupViaProperty and Class::newInstance as before.
