Login redirect doesn't work when web app is installed in ROOT context #202

I tried installing Metalnx into the ROOT context so that it lives at / rather than at /metalnx/; but I found that the login redirect still starts with /metalnx/:

$ oc exec metalnx-7479b67dd6-kzbf6  -- curl -sS -I http://localhost:8080/
HTTP/1.1 302
Location: /metalnx/login/exception/

This should be /login/exception/.

Understood.

I'm pretty sure the string 'metalnx' is hard-coded into a route or path in hundreds of places in this codebase.

It would be much simpler/faster to route from / to /metalnx/ if you need to have the application appear at the root.

Yes, for now I think we have to live with the /metalnx mapping, over the medium term much of the login and thymeleaf based handling will go away as it moves more towards a single page proper javascript->AJAX arrangment. My two cents.
