Referencing an uploaded image in CSS

I see on some other Mediawiki's, like Minecraft, that in their Vector.CSS they use:

--vector-tabs: url('filepath://Vector-tabs.png');

and that seems to autotranslate to the complete path in the downloaded CSS:

--vector-tabs: url(/images/Vector-tabs.png?0ceb5);

but when I use that on my Mediawiki, I just get back the same text

Vector.css:

--base-background: url('filepath://AdventureRoadBackground.png');

returns:

--base-background: url(filepath://AdventureRoadBackground.png);

I checked, and File:AdventureRoadBackground.png does indeed exist.

Is there a hook that needs to be written, a setting to be flipped, or an extension to install to get this translation to work?

MediaWiki 1.40.0

That does sound like an extension, however I've never heard of any extension to do that. Maybe its something custom to their site.
