Transclusion of images external to vault fails in callouts

Bug reports
1

Steps to reproduce

  1. Transclude a picture from outside the vault using the absolute path reference, placed within angled brackets, like so:
![pic](<C:/mypic.jpg>)
  1. This should successfully transclude the image. Once that is done, put the transclusion within a callout, like so:
>[!info]
>![pic](<C:/mypic.jpg>)

The translusion should be unsuccessful.

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]

Other formats appear to work just fine, for example

>[!info]
>![pic](file:///C:%5Cmypic.jpg)

Expected result

An image should be transcluded within a callout

Actual result

Instead, a “missing image” placeholder is rendered

This is not a bug because we do not support this format for external images.
