ZCU-PUB/test: reload redirect must be absolute and must not fire during SSR

Replicates the redirect loop after a Shibboleth login: the relative
'reload/<timestamp>' URL is resolved against the current URL
(e.g. /bitstreams/<uuid>/download), producing growing
/bitstreams/<uuid>/reload/reload/... URLs, because during SSR the redirect
repeats on every request (the dsRedirectUrl cookie cannot be cleared
server-side - ServerCookieService.remove is a no-op).

Also stops static-page.component.spec from mutating the shared environment
object (it replaced environment.ui, breaking later specs reading
environment.ui.nameSpace).
