Allow raw blobs to be served from an external storage

What does this MR do?

It works the same way as !14846 (merged):

It consists of two parts:

  1. Redirecting users to the configured external storage
  2. Allowing the external storage to request the static object(s) on behalf of the user by means of specific tokens
