Strict rule for topic name is being applied since #53 #76

In the usage chapter of the following link, http://wiki.ros.org/web_video_server This address is being shown as an example: http://localhost:8888/stream?topic=depthcloud_encoded&bitrate=250000&type=vp8

But it doesn't work because a strict rule is applied to topic name since the pull request #53

Global namespace is needed to be written explicitly http://localhost:8888/stream?topic=/depthcloud_encoded&bitrate=250000&type=vp8

We can update wiki page, but considering backward compatibility I think it's better to fix the code.
