Add an option to redirect trailing slash urls

Also

removes some trailing whitespace (automatically performed by editor, can be reverted if desired)
adds test/runtest.jl
adds Test as a test dep
alphabetizes Project.toml (automatically performed by Pkg, can be reverted if desired)

It's still functionally untested.

Fixes #64

The best approach from a website visitor's perspective judged based on web best practices is to serve a 301 redirect. That would be faster, more conventional, and still preserve fragments.

However, for static site hosts that do not support serving custom 301 redirects (e.g. github pages), this is a reasonable alternative. This PR serves a 200 page

shell> curl https://chairmarks.lilithhafner.com/previews/PR80/explanations/#Why-the-name-"Chairmarks.jl"?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<script>
    const u = new URL(window.location.href);
    window.location.replace(u.origin + u.pathname.slice(0,-1) + u.search + u.hash);
</script>
<a href="..explanations">Redirecting to ..explanations</a>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=../explanations">
<link rel="canonical" href="../explanations">

Which uses javascript to preserve the url fragment. If the javascript fails, then there is both an automatic and manual fallback. Both fallbacks fail to preserve the url fragment.

This PR is tested at https://github.com/LilithHafner/Chairmarks.jl/pull/80

Thanks! I will add a couple of small tests, and merge this before the next release!
