Trailing slash is required for request URI match

[kettanaito]

Current behavior

The following request handler:

rest.get('https://test.msw.io', ...)

Will not match https://test.msw.io/. The trailing slash if often appended automatically. For example, when performing:

fetch('https://test.msw.io')

The request URI would be resolved to https://test.msw.io/ (containing the trailing slash).

Expected behavior

• Trailing slash is disregarded during request URI matching:
  • https://test.io === https://test.io/
• Trailing slash is also disregarded when matching nested paths:
  • https://test.io/foo === https://test.io/foo/

Request URI matching is performed by node-match-path library. The handling of a trailing slash looks like that library's responsibility and I think it should be implemented in that library.

Raised mswjs/node-match-path#4.

@hehehai, please, what is your opinion on this? Shall we ignore the trailing shash when matching request URLs?
