Replace page.root (LibraryCarpentry#310)

* replace page.root with 'base' variable that knows path level * deal with case of trailing / in URL * use link to figure out path for logos * simplify path building for favicons * baseurl isn't used in our template so it can removed * use 'base' variable for path root instead of unecessary http request to site.url * replace page.root with 'base' variable that knows path level * deal with case of trailing / in URL * use link to figure out path for logos * simplify path building for favicons * baseurl isn't used in our template so it can removed * use 'base' variable for path root instead of unecessary http request to site.url * rename variable, consolidate comments * rename variable in template files
