Description

Due to the introduction of loading placeholders towards the end of #31464, internal URLs will now briefly showing a "loading" state. This is not desirable.

This PR fixes this by testing against a base URL which is used to test if the URL being previewed is an internal URL. If it is then we bail out.

This baseURL has been added to the @wordpress/editor block editor settings as we cannot apply the test directly in as this must remain WordPress agnostic. Note however, that the concept of a internal URL applies to all types of application.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

1. Create link to internal URL (ie: a Page or Post).
2. Click on link again to see preview.
3. See brief loading UI flash up.

Expected behaviour

Should not show any rich preview loading state (or otherwise) for internal URLs.

Actual behaviour

Shows a briefly "loading" UI for rich previews even if the URL is internal.
