fix: redirect trailing slashes to prevent 500 errors#51
Draft
Conversation
URLs with trailing slashes (e.g. /protocol/) were returning 500 errors. This adds vercel.json with trailingSlash: false to automatically redirect trailing slash URLs to their canonical non-slash versions.

Summary
Fixes 500 errors when accessing URLs with trailing slashes (e.g.
/protocol/vs/protocol).Problem
Vocs/Waku's router expects paths without trailing slashes. When a user accesses a URL with a trailing slash, the framework throws "Path must not end with
/" and returns a 500 error.Solution
Add
vercel.jsonwithtrailingSlash: falseto automatically redirect trailing slash URLs to their canonical non-slash versions with a 308 permanent redirect at the edge layer before the request reaches the application.Testing
