CoverageStores should allow for data urls outside geoserver_data_dir, like FeatureStores do

Description

FeatureStores allow for data urls to be relative to geoserver_data_dir (when given as a relative file path), or to be anywhere on the file system when given as absolute file path. CoverageStores interpret any url as relative to geoserver_data_dir. For consistence sake and because some people (like me) like to be more flexible about where to put the data, please change the behaviour of CoverageStore to also allow for absolute file paths.

Environment

None

<p>Yeah, I'd say this is even more important for coverages as they can be even bigger than rasters, and this option makes it so we don't force people to move the locations of their data. </p>

<p>Ideally when we get an ingestion engine one can also configure it to watch other directories on one's machine.</p>
