Fix a bug with links to pages whose names contained colons.

So the problem is that ikiwiki would generate a relative link like
href="colon:problem", which web browsers treat as being in the "colon:"
uri scheme.

The best fix seems to be to make url beautification fix this, by slapping
a "./" in front.
