[TYPO3-core] RFC #9455: RTE incorrectly modifies external links and causes problems with subdomains

[Dan Osipov]

Oliver,

This is a bug, so it should be fixed. I felt that the best way of fixing 
it without breaking anything is by adding the configuration. If the 
config value is not available, everything will work as before.

Link is converted from <a href="http://sub.example.com/news/local.html"> 
into <link news/local.html - external-link-new-window "Opens external 
link in new window"> which is what causes the issue.

We first experienced it in tt_news, but my guess is that its affecting 
other areas as well. Any internal link will be parsed this way, and 
produce an incorrect link in this set up.
