Description

### Expected Behavior

I expected yaml to let you get EXTRA PATHS, meaning extra directories where to look for modes.

### Actual Behavior

Instead if you configure **upscale_models: models\upscale_models\** then comfy will only look for models in that external forlder you mentioned in yaml, and if there is not the model you are needing there, then despite having it locally at comfyui/localPAth/models/upscale_models/, comfyui will not recongize it. At least not the load face enhance node.
(Despite seeing it in the model manager)

### Steps to Reproduce

Write this in yaml:
upscale_models: models\upscale_models\
Keep a gfp inside your local models but dont copy it in YAML(models\upscale_models)

### Debug Logs

```powershell
.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue with `upscale_models: models\upscale_models\`, keeping the GFP model only in `comfyui/localPath/models/upscale_models/`. Compare the model manager's results with the load face enhance node, and consider the issue done when configured extra paths are searched without excluding the local model directory.
