When `relativePath: true`, even absolute paths are for icons in sidebar are resolved as relative.

Bug Report

When relativePath: true, absolute paths are for icons in sidebar are resolved as relative.

Steps to reproduce

Set relativePath: true

└── docs
 ├── _sidebar.md
 ├── guide.md
 └── subfolder
 ├── _sidebar.md
 ├── guide.md

In the both _sidebar files, I have - [![](/assets/home.svg)Home](/ "Home")

What is current behaviour

While the link gets resolved as absolute (👍 ),
for images,
the data-origin is correct (👍 ), but the img scr is relative and thus failing (👎 )

<a href="#/" title="Home"><img src="/subfolder/assets/home.svg" data-origin="/assets/home.svg" alt="">Home</a>

What is the expected behaviour

The img src should be absolute:
"/assets/home.svg"

While I understand your intention (and you're right), here's a small note:
But both of the mentioned paths are absolute paths:

• /subfolder/assets/home.svg
• /assets/home.svg

they simple start at a different root-directory. A relative path would ideally start with an './' (or even without a slash).

This is an important feature, because otherwise it's cumbersome to link from one .md to the contents of another <sibling/parent/child>.md.

Resolving image seems to use a different algorithm that's why images are not working.

I can reproduce this in any page:

![Secure website image](/_assets/secure-website.png)

is resolved as:

• {base-path}#/_assets/secure-website.png when i'm e.g. at #/quickstart, but as
• {base-path}#/ja/_assets/secure-website.png, which doesn't exists and returns 404, when i'm e.g. at #/ja/quickstart.

Given the URL is absolute I don't understand why Docsify feels like it should consider it relative, especially since I don't set relativePath.
