Redefine "base URL" as "log URL" proposal
Background
---
The current api.md specification requires that a log has a fixed unique "base
URL". It is any valid HTTP(S) URL that can end with "/sigsum/v0/<endpoint>".
Proposal
---
Remove the term "base URL" and instead define "log URL". A log URL is a valid
HTTP(S) URL that ends with "/sigsum/v0/". Example of a valid log URL:
https://example.com:4711/opposum/sigsum/v0/
This means that a named sigsum endpoint can be appended to a log's URL. For
example, if the endpoint is "get-tree-head-quickly" the resulting "endpoint URL"
would be:
https://example.com:4711/opposum/sigsum/v0/get-tree-head-quickly/
And with input parameters for "get-leaves":
https://example.com:4711/opposum/sigsum/v0/get-leaves/42/4711/
Note the final slash in all of the above URLs. Should that be enforced (?).
* XXX: Need to check in URL specification(s). Defer for now.
