interactive_marker_tutorials fail with "Error getting time of latest transform between /base_link and base_link"

Starting any example from the interactive_marker_tutorials fails with an error:

Error getting time of latest transform between /base_link and base_link

Seemingly link name comparison in rviz doesn't ignore a leading slash anymore: All the examples in the tutorial register a marker to the frame "/base_link" while rviz removes the leading slash in the global fixed frame. Removing the leading slash in the examples fixes the issue. However, eventually, the problem should be fixed on rviz side (#918).

tested on ROS Indigo.
