Subject: [PATCH] Set rootURL to the site's baseURL

This fixes loading images and other assets in javascripts, when the site
is not deployed to the root folder, but into a sub-folder.

The fix replaces the server host based `rootURL` with Hugo's `baseURL`.
Since this URL is used in calls to `new URL`, it needs to end with a
trailing slash for the URLs to be constructed correctly.
