Make static URLs absolute in handouts and about for mobile API

Same as https://github.com/edx/edx-platform/pull/6116 but for the release candidate instead of master.

@gwprice @nasthagiri just review this one and I'll make sure everything gets updated for the master one.

cc @BenjiLee this is what we want to get into the release

Create a subclass for testing handouts, since additional setup is needed (importing from 'toy' course).
