* base_path() prefixes and suffixes a "/" onto the returned path if the path is
* not empty. At the very least, this will return "/".
*
* Example #1: Drupal installed at "http://yoursite.com" means
* this will just return "/" because the path is empty.
*
* Example #2: Drupal installed at "http://yoursite.com/drupal/folder"
* means this function will return "/drupal/folder/".
* Examples:
* - http://example.com returns "/" because the path is empty.
* - http://example.com/drupal/folder returns "/drupal/folder/".
