Describe the bug When the FeignClient.path is set and a url is defined in the properties file, then the incorrect url is constructed. So the call fails with an exception

Steps to reproduce 1. Set up the target host in the properties file

spring.cloud.openfeign.client.config.withPathAndUrlFromConfigClient.url=http://localhost:7777
  1. Set up the FeignClient.path (which is a common prefix according to the its javadoc)
@FeignClient(name = "withPathAndUrlFromConfigClient", path = "/common")
interface WithPathAndUrlFromConfigClient {

    @GetMapping("/test")
    UrlTestClient.UrlResponseForTests test();

}
  1. Call the test() method.

Actual result: the exception is thrown

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: target values must be absolute.

    at java.base/java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:580)

Expected result: the url http://localhost:7777/common/test is called.

Note: when I hardcode the url into the FeignClient.url then it works fine.

Spring Cloud Open Feign version: 4.0.4
