Servlet context path with more than one slash not working

[TheRealHaui]

Setting a servlet context path containing more than one slash leads the entire application to not work anymore.

When setting

server:
  servlet:
    context-path: /dir/subdir

in the application-dev.yaml file and setting

[        new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
          template: './src/main/webapp/index.html',
          chunksSortMode: 'auto',
          inject: 'body',
          base: '/dir/subdir',
        }),](url)

in the webpack.common.js file like described in the official documentation the entire application goes out of order.
Currently React is in use for the web layer.

Obviously web resources like index.html do not get found by the Browser anymore because of obviously wrong directoy/path structures used then.
I suspect it a problem with parsing because of the second slash in any internally used library.

I can't confirm.
It works with two slashes for 7.9.3 if you apply the following fix:
#21534

I am not talking about additional features like swagger though. But I couldn't make those work for one-slashed context-paths anyways.

Closing this issue since servlet context path have been fixed in main branch.
Please reopen in case the issue remain
