SOLIDPOD: sharing a file to Public/AuthUsers fails with CheckPodInitialised() error

[jesscmoore]

Describe the Bug

When I use Notepod to try to share a note with the Public or Auth Users, the GrantPermissionUI() shows the grant permission process failed with a CheckPodInitialised error

To Reproduce

In notepod

1. For one of My notes, and click share icon
2. Click on Public or Auth Users, select Read access, and click on Grant
3. See snackbar popup and console errors relating to check pod initialised function which shouldn't be called when Public selected.

Console:

flutter: checkPodInitialised() failed: 'package:solidpod/src/solid/api/rest_api.dart': Failed assertion: line 284 pos 12: 'resUrl.endsWith('/')': is not true.
...

Snackbar popup after try to share to Public:

Snackbar popup after try to share to Auth Users:

Expected Behaviour

Permission should grant successfully, and my ACL and permission log should update. Also expect to see a line in the displayed permission table.
