Fix issues with using Retina images on CDNs.
Review Request #8462 — Created Oct. 14, 2016 and submitted
retina.js explicitly forbids enabling @2x images when referenced as an absolute URL, rather than a relative path. This is causing RBCommons to show a non-Retina logo (and other images as well, but most of our icons use spritesheets and CSS, preventing this problem). This was never fixed in retina.js, and retina.js 2.x is a fundamental rewrite that impacts compatibility, so we need to patch this locally. The change is bypasses the external URL check when we know an explicit at2x image has been provided. Long-term, we'll want to move everything to srcsets and away from retina.js, but this solves the issue for now.
Tested with URL references to external CDNs. Saw Retina images instead
of non-Retina images.
