dropboxjs longpoll : error 400 : You must issue the request to "notify.dropboxapi.com"

I have got a quick and dirty fix, but I'm not to sure of the impact it has. I can submit it if necessary.

The BASE_URL variable in rpc-requests.js is set to 'https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/', so no request can be sent to https://notify.dropboxapi.com/2/.

In the DropboxBase.prototype.request (dropbox-base.js) method, the 'host' parameter is not used. This parameter is properly set to 'notify' when a call to filesListFolderLongpoll() occurs but it is not given to rpcRequest. And, as I said above, BASE_URL is hard coded.

Hope this can help :)
