Subject: avoid adding ./ to urls unnecessarily
X-Git-Url: https://sipb.mit.edu/gitweb.cgi/ikiwiki.git/commitdiff_plain/dca6c835fe2e97331751e1cdedf1dbf0009309ef

avoid adding ./ to urls unnecessarily

This avoids constructing urls like "./../foo/".
The leading "../" avoids any colon confusion already.

I noticed in my logs that certain badly written web spiders (hello again,
Yahoo!) fail to follow urls like ikiwiki was constructing to the right
place (instead ending up at "./foo/")
