mleanos 99e5803eae Fix client-side tests after removing <base/>
Fixes the client-side tests after the removal of the <base/> tag from
the main layout.

These fixes aren't ideal. At the moment, they will suffice. This comment
(https://github.com/angular-ui/ui-router/issues/212#issuecomment-60803437),
among others in that issue, led me to choose this method as the fix to
avoid having to change any other core code.
