Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
I want to set my publicPath to something like ``, which is a [nginx ssi expression](https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_ssi_module.html#commands).
I have a config like:
```js
new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
filename: "index.html",
publicPath: "",
}),
```
I want the output html to be like:
```html
```
But it automatically added a trailing slash for the publicPath, it output:
```html
^
```
**Describe the solution you'd like**
It would be nice to have an option to opt-out the automatically added trailing slash for `publicPath`.
Something like:
```js
new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
filename: "index.html",
publicPath: "",
publicPathTrailingSlash: false,
}),
```
P.S. I am using webpack v4 along with html-webpack-plugin v4, so supports it in v4 would be nice, thank you.

Research direction
Start by tracing how html-webpack-plugin combines publicPath with generated bundle URLs, using the configuration and HTML output shown in the issue. Reproduce the nginx SSI case with webpack 4 and html-webpack-plugin 4, then verify that an opt-out produces main.js without an inserted slash.
