[TYPO3-commerce] get product images from external server

you could simply change the TCA of the image fields and change the TS 
for image processing. But I think you have to add your external Server 
to the allowed-temp-paths in the install-tool.

Second way would be to add a custom field and a custom maker with one of 
the numerous additional marker hooks.
