Issues with baseUrl feature adding trailing slash

[JChaneyasdf]

Current behavior

The baseUrl feature is appending a slash to the baseUrl, which can cause some websites to disconnect or fail to fire their load event.

Desired behavior

cy.visit('/') should take the user to the baseUrl, not https//baseUrl.com/

Test code to reproduce

Code is company intellectual property. To check this behavior, run any local virtualized server and attempt to visit it using baseUrl and cy.visit('/'). Check your browsers dev console or cypress debug log, and if the issue has been successfully recreated, the site visited will not be baseUrl, but will instead have a slash character appended to the end.
