[plt-scheme] change default-web-root to a different path

A user goes to the URL

http://server/path/to/servlet.ss/something/else/afterwards

I want to know

1) /path/to/servlet.ss as the virtual path for the servlet

so I can calculate

2) /sometihng/else/afterwards as the path info

`this-expression-file-name` doesn't tell me how many levels down is the
server's root directory, so it's a bit more difficult to do relative path
calculation.

Thanks,
yc
