// ## createUrl
// Simple url creation from a given path
// Ensures that our urls contain the subdirectory if there is one
// And are correctly formatted as either relative or absolute
// Usage:
// createUrl('/', true) -> http://my-ghost-blog.com/
// E.g. /blog/ subdir
// createUrl('/welcome-to-ghost/') -> /blog/welcome-to-ghost/
// Parameters:
// - urlPath - string which must start and end with a slash
// - absolute (optional, default:false) - boolean whether or not the url should be absolute
// - secure (optional, default:false) - boolean whether or not to use urlSSL or url config
// Returns:

// ## urlFor
// Synchronous url creation for a given context
// Can generate a url for a named path, given path, or known object (post)
// Determines what sort of context it has been given, and delegates to the correct generation method,
// Finally passing to createUrl, to ensure any subdirectory is honoured, and the url is absolute if needed
// Usage:
// urlFor('home', true) -> http://my-ghost-blog.com/
// E.g. /blog/ subdir
// urlFor({relativeUrl: '/my-static-page/') -> /blog/my-static-page/
// E.g. if post object represents welcome post, and slugs are set to standard
// urlFor('post', {...}) -> /welcome-to-ghost/
// E.g. if post object represents welcome post, and slugs are set to date
// urlFor('post', {...}) -> /2014/01/01/welcome-to-ghost/
// Parameters:
// - context - a string, or json object describing the context for which you need a url
// - data (optional) - a json object containing data needed to generate a url
// - absolute (optional, default:false) - boolean whether or not the url should be absolute
