Description

When creating an external link with the same hostname, it turns into an internal link when looking at the link again.

Steps to reproduce:
1. In edit mode on a xhtmlstring property, in the Tinymce editor, create an external link to a page on the same site. For example, if the site is test.local, you add an external link to test.local/alloy-plan/#1234.
2. Publish the page.
3. Note that the external link is rendered correctly in view mode.
4. Go back to edit mode.
5. Edit the link.

Expected:
The Page radio button should be selected, and the query string parameters should be configurable in the "Remaining url" field.

Actual:
Link is turned into an internal link, where you can't see the #1234 part.
