Item9225: Improve URL parsing, and detection of SubWeb vs. Topic name in path

We are running into several users errors where they type Web/Subweb expecting to get Web/Subweb/WebHome, and instead get "topic not found". While the current structure allows the flexibility of a Topic and a Subweb co-existing with the same name, I think it would be preferable to remove that, in favor of an implied / whenever webExists(web/topic), and a failure when trying to create a topic with the same name as a subweb.

this is a known 'issue' for which I have a feature request to change - but I didn't get to it before we went into feature freeze - FallBackToTopicWhenTrailingSpaceAndNoSuchSubweb

While it has a good chance of not being a big deal, we're worried that it might change some internal assumptions - and thus I didn't rush it in..

mostly - sorry :/

marking this task as the task for this feature, I'll implement it soon after we fork 1.1 out of trunk.

This Tasks seem still to be open as of Foswiki 1.1.4
