Theme Directory is missing redirect with trailing slash

Description

The Theme Directory is missing a redirect with a trailing slash at the end of the URL. So it is available with and without the trailing slash, which is bad for SEO (duplicate content), I think.

​https://wordpress.org/themes and ​https://wordpress.org/themes/ are both working an none of them is redirecting to the other.

I think the first one (without trailing slash) should redirect to the last one (with trailing slash).

In 6498:

Theme Directory: Add a redirect for wordpress.org/themes to wordpress.org/themes/.
This would normally be handled by WordPress redirect_canonical() but we have that disabled on the Theme Directory.

Fixes #1543.
