#3578: Determine $bp->component->root_slug automatically

 One of the parameters for BP_Components::setup_globals() is root_slug. But
 there's no reason (that I can think of) why this should need to be
 provided manually. The root_slug should *always* match the path of the
 corresponding item in $bp->pages.

 On that note, here are two different proposals:
 1) Don't ask for a root_slug at all from component classes. Just take a
 moment in BP_Component::setup_globals() to get it out of $bp->pages.
 2) Use the value out of $bp->pages as a default

 I think that we can safely go with (1), but IMO the least we can do is
 (2). (FWIW, I think that (2) can - and should - be slipped in for BP 1.5,
 while there is not enough time for (1).)

 Thoughts?
