[Bug]: On Windows, Layer link use \ instead of /

[nworr]

What is the bug?

On Windows , the layer metadata form allows to browse files to choose a file that will be used as a link on LWC, however the content is displayed (and stored in .cfg) using \ for sub folder.

But this value is used as it on LWC to build the getMedia url see code , and the link is not valid

A patch could convert the value to unix path ("media/foo/bar" ), however it seems to me that this path is used to upload the files on the server (using WebDAV) so it may need to be "OS - dependant " ? (and therefore maybe convert the value on LWC side ? )
