Remove trailing slashes from Origin URL

[NxSoftware]

The trailing slashes are not needed and are causing a server-side exception in Spring:

RFC 6454 allows only [sheme]://[host]:[port] as valid origins.
Spring Framework currently does the same but has some other issues related to the origin header.

Recently, I've made a pull request to fix theme and suggested to treat origins which have the slash at the end as valid.

I corrected my comment to be more valid

[mikelikespie]

Going to go with the RFC on this one. Thanks @GeorgeCGV

[GeorgeCGV]

@mikelikespie, in the standard origins like:http://domain.org/, http://domain.org:80/ are invalid. Personally, I don't think / at the end of the url is really a big issue. Some Servers may allow it - but then it is not 100% pure standard implementation where valid origin is [scheme]://[host]:[port].

I am not sure which way the Spring guys will decide to go (allow or disallow / at the end). But in any case, you better to remove the slash at the end in order to comply to the standard.
Next time it may be some websocket Server with strict (pure) RFC 6454 implementation and then clients which use this library (SocketRocket) won't work.
