[emacs-wiki-discuss] emacs-wiki-make-link and [[foo]]

[Sacha Chua]

Hello, everyone!

(emacs-wiki-make-link "[[foo]]") used to return "[[foo]]", but
emacs-wiki/77 took out the emacs-wiki-wiki-link-target code because it
was screwing up Interwiki names. This caused a bug with planner-multi
and non-wiki names, which were formerly easily supported. I didn't run
into this until now because I don't update my dev emacs-wiki very
often. <sheepish grin> Kudos to Romain Francoise for pointing out this
bug. Fixing it in emacs-wiki means not having to make changes to
planner-multi and other code that relies on emacs-wiki-make-link
trying to do the right thing.

Here's a patch to restore the right behavior.
