[Bug]: Full domain URLs in images.path config bypass Edge functions

[zachleat]

Summary

With a next.config.js file like this:

module.exports = {
  images: {
    path: `https://example.com/_next/image`,
  },
}

The Netlify edge function manifest.json outputs:

{
	"functions": [
		{
			"function": "ipx",
			"name": "next/image handler",
			"path": "https://example.com/_next/image",
			"generator": "@netlify/[email protected]"
		}
	],
	"layers": [
		{
			"name": "https://ipx-edge-function-layer.netlify.app/mod.ts",
			"flag": "ipx-edge-function-layer-url"
		}
	],
	"version": 1
}

The problem here is that domains in path are not supported for Edge functions, similar to what you might expect in domain-level redirects.

Steps to reproduce

1. Navigate to https://melodious-rugelach-38894a.netlify.app/
2. Each of the first 4 links should render as Hello world Edge text
3. Changing config.path in netlify/edge-functions/ipx.js to /_next/image fixes the issue.
