Before, returning a `bool` from a route caused the error
```

TypeError: 'bool' object is not callable
The view function did not return a valid response. The return type must be a string, tuple, Response instance, or WSGI callable, but it was a bool.
```
Now, it returns the more readable

Fixes#3214
-prefix a path delimiter iff there's a path to delimit
-ensures a valid default static route rule is created on application
intialisation for the case 'static_folder=""' and implicit
'static_url_path'
This supports an increasingly common usecase whereby JSON is the
primary response (rather than a templated string). Given Flask has a
short syntax for HTML reponses, it seems fitting that it should also
do so for JSON responses. In practice it allows,
@app.route("/")
def index():
return {
"api_stuff": "values",
}
Now that we have a Black pre-commit hook (#3138),
ensure pre-commit gets installed on ``pip install -e .[dev]``
and document use of Black (rather than "try to follow pep8")
in CONTRIBUTING.
