(bug 41990) Fix regression in API edit of redirect Before ContentHandler, an API edit passing a redirect for title and redirect=true and omitting basetimestamp would use the last revision timestamp of the target page. When ContentHandler was merged, this was accidentally changed to use the last revision timestamp of the redirect page, which was likely much earlier than the target page's last revision and so causes an edit conflict in almost all cases. Some scripts took advantage of this along with appendtext to add notices to users' talk pages, so restore that old behavior. We'll also adjust the contentmodel/contentformat detection added by ContentHandler to use the model and format of the target page rather than the redirect in this case, as that seems more likely to be less wrong.
