With this fix, for me, the URL for opening wp-admin now works as expected 👍

Proposed Changes
/wp-admin/URLs in the settings tab, header WP Admin button, and copy-to-clipboard actions. WordPress redirects/wp-adminto/wp-admin/, so using the canonical URL avoids an unnecessary redirect.Note
This has been fixed in the playground repo as part of WordPress/wordpress-playground#3301, so this code will not strictly be required after playground version is updated to v3.1.2, but it saves one redirect, so it can be kept after the upgrade.
