Podman remote Windows client asks for absolute volume paths regardless of input

Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST? (leave only one on its own line)

/kind bug

Description

When running the Podman Windows client against a WSL 2 remote podman run -v will tell me to provide absolute paths, no matter what I provide.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

While struggling with #11386, I'm running a Podman service in a WSL 2 Ubuntu host through

$ sudo podman system service -t 0 tcp:0.0.0.0:2566

Then, using the Podman remote Windows client, I can do things like

>podman run -it debian /bin/bash

and it just works, so that's great.

However, one I start using -v, I'll run into error messages

>podman run -v .:/app -it debian /bin/bash
Error: invalid container path "/app", must be an absolute path

Describe the results you expected:
Since we're running remotely, I'm not sure exactly what I would expect for the host directory part; probably something in the WSL 2 host. What I would expect is the error that the container directory part must be an absolute path regardless of what I put in: /app seems like it would fit the description of "absolute".

Have you tested with the latest version of Podman and have you checked the Podman Troubleshooting Guide? (https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/master/troubleshooting.md)

Yes

@flouthoc I think you fixed that already on main, right?

[flouthoc]

@Luap99 I think this is clone of #10900 this is fixed in latest main. @fuglede Could you please try latest main ?
