[PATCH 1/3] http-push: append slash if possible for directories

["Ray Chuan" <rctay89@gmail.com>]

the lock_remote currently sends MKCOL requests to leading directories
to make sure they exist; however, it doesn't put a forward slash '/'
behind the path, so if the path is a directory, the server sends a 301
redirect.

by appending a '/' we can save the server this additional step.

in addition, it seems that curl doesn't re-send the authentication
credentials when it follows a 301 redirect, so skipping (unnecessary)
redirects can also be seen as a workaround for this issue. (i'm using
7.16.3)
