Is this a bug report?

I dont know if this is a Bug.

The docs says that RCTImageFromLocalAssetURL loads only local images.

// Returns an UIImage for a local image asset. Returns nil if the URL
// does not correspond to a local asset.

But in recent version of RN, it is also loading image from web (https).

My question is, this is intentional? Because this breaks my previous logic.
