Subject: [PATCH] gh-87389: Fix an open redirection vulnerability in
 http.server. (GH-93879)

Fix an open redirection vulnerability in the `http.server` module when
an URI path starts with `//` that could produce a 301 Location header
with a misleading target.  Vulnerability discovered, and logic fix
proposed, by Hamza Avvan (@hamzaavvan).

Test and comments authored by Gregory P. Smith [Google].
(cherry picked from commit 4abab6b603dd38bec1168e9a37c40a48ec89508e)
