Foo/Baz, and Foo/Bar/Baz gets added, it will update the links in Foo/Bar

+(Some of) The buggy code is in `find_changed_links`
+which doesn't detect that the link has changed in
+this case, because when it looks at where the `%oldlinks` link to,
+it does so after having updated state to add/remove the page.
