MediaWiki.php: Redirect non-standard title urls to canonical
Urls that use the page's title and no extra query parameters now redirect
to the standard url format.
Previously we only did this for variations of the title value (e.g. "Foo%20Bar"),
not for variations of the overall url structure (like title=Foo -> /wiki/Foo).
Existing redirect (unchanged):
/wiki/Foo%20Bar
/w/index.php?title=Foo%20Bar
New redirects:
/wiki/Foo_Bar?action=view
/w/index.php?title=Foo_Bar
/w/index.php?title=Foo_Bar&action=view
Any intentional (or unintentional) ways a url can be rewritten by the server,
such as "/?title=Foo_Bar" in case of Wikimedia, are redirected as well.
While this has been a problem for many years, it went unnoticed until
recently when Google started to index significantly more results of
the "/?title=<name>" form. This query returns "About 3,220,000 results":
https://google.com/search?q=site:en.wikipedia.org+inurl:title+-intitle:title
The only change in logic is that the titlekey comparison is now no longer a
factor in deciding whether to redirect. Instead the existing comparison for the
entire url is used to cover this.
However I kept titlekey comparison in the redirect-loop check as otherwise this
check would throw on all canonical page views where no redirect can be made.
Added a comment explaining how this redirect loop was possible.
