Include the absolute URL to the sitemap in the robots.txt file #633

Description of change

In the robots.txt file, the value of the sitemap field is a relative URL. This should be changed to an absolute URL. See protocol: https://sitemaps.org/protocol.html#submit_robots

For example, in the Google search console, this error message appears when it's a relative url:

"Invalid sitemap URL" incomprehensible syntax

I think it would be interesting to have a default sitemap field in the right format using root_url.

What do you think of this change?
