Turning on Redirect IPFS resources to the configured IPFS gateway breaks ipfs status page

[youssef20031]

Description

When I turn on Redirect IPFS resources to the configured IPFS gateway, it breaks IPFS status page. This is due to brave redirecting the status page through IPFS and it does not detect the IPFS client running

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install ipfs
2. turn on Redirect IPFS resources to the configured IPFS gateway
3. test the status page

Actual result:
