Use absolute paths in internal "requires"
Ensure that when locally testing or otherwise using a specific

come from the same version and not from some other version in the

For example, prior to this commit, doing an:
irb -r ext/wikitext lib/wikitext/string
Would not produce the desired result. First the local copy of the
extension would be loaded, then the local "lib/wikitext/string",
but then the latter would do a "require 'wikitext/parser'", which
would load the first corresponding file in the load path (usually
the latest installed gem), which would in turn do a "require
'wikitext'" and end up loading the first corresponding file in
the load path.

Add support for "absolute" image "src" attributes
Under the default settings input like "{{foo.png}}" will be translated
to an "img" tag with "src" attribute of "/images/foo.png".
With this commit, we provide a shortcut for breaking out of the "prefix"
directory: any target beginning with a slash will be interpreted as
"absolute". So input like "{{/foo.png}}" will yield a "src" of
"/foo.png".
This is a somewhat prettier mechanism than using inputs like
"{{../foo.png}}", which already worked under the current translator.
Previously we accepted buggy input like "[[ ]]", "[[ ]]"
and "[[ |foo]]" and dutifully turned it into empty links
like:
<a href="/wiki/"></a>
And:
<a href="/wiki/">foo</a>

take the user back to the wiki index, so now we spit out
these bad links verbatim to provide feedback to the user
that there's something wrong with their input.

Add "base_heading_level" option
An integer between 0 and 6 denoting the current "heading level".
This can be used to inform the parser of the "context" in which
it is translating markup.
For example, the parser might be translating blog post excerpts
on a page where there is an "h1" title element for the page itself
and an "h2" title element for each excerpt. In this context it is
useful to set base_heading_level to 2, so that any "top level"
headings in the markup (that is "h1" elements) can be automatically
transformed into "h3" elements so that they appear to be
appropriately "nested" inside the containing page elements.
In this way, markup authors can be freed from thinking about
which header size they should use and just always start from "h1"
for their most general content and work their way down.
An additional benefit is that markup can be used in different
contexts at different levels of nesting and the headings will be
adjusted to suit automatically with no intervention from the
markup author.
Finally, it's worth noting that in contexts where the user input
is not necessarily trusted, this setting can be used to prevent
users from inappropriately employing "h1" tags in deeply-nested
contexts where they would otherwise disturb the visual harmony of
the page.

Fix subtle Rakefile breakage
As mentioned in b12cb25, the 1.4.0 release was broken due to a misfire
during "rake package".
The diagnosis was as follows; before each of the following tests, a
"rake clobber" was executed to start with a clean slate:
- "rake gem": "make" does appear to be executed,
but produced gem is incomplete
- "rake make; rake gem": produced gem is complete
- "rake package": "make" does appear to be executed,
but produced gem is incomplete
- "rake make; rake package": you can see "clobber"
task getting executed, then "make"; you would
expect this automated "make" not to work seeing
as it is broken in two other cases above, but
the built gem is complete and it works!
Specifically, in the incomplete gems, the generated
extension Makefile has these lines:
Note that the Makefile in the sourcetree in all of these tests
was correct; it was only the file generated from the gems that
was incorrect.
Further inspection showed that the wikitext_ragel.c file was not
included in the gem. This was the key; the file was missing
from inside the gem even though it was correctly generated outside
while building the gem. Naturally, the Makefile was also missing the
file ("mkmf" generates the SRCS and OBJS lines based on what it
finds in the directory).
The reason the file was missing was that the "files" entry in the
Gem specification was evaluated too early, before the dependencies
in the tasks had been executed, and before the "wikitext_ragel.c"
file even existed.
Running "rake make" manually beforehand was enough to make
everything work because it ensured that the "wikitext_ragel.c"
file was present at the time the Gem specification was evaluated;
even though the file was later clobbered and rebuilt it didn't
matter because the "files" entry was correct.
It would have been nice for the gem build to fail due to the
missing file. I would have been alerted then to the fact that
1.4.0 was broken; I'm going to see if I can make the build process
barf in the face of a missing file like that.

wikitext_ragel.o. "rake clobber; rake package" also suffers from the
missing object file.

Toggle default value of space_to_underscore
I think the original choice for this was overly conservative, despite

Converting spaces to underscores makes most URLs prettier, but it
comes at a cost: when this mode is true the articles "foo bar" and
"foo_bar" can no longer be disambiguated, and a link to "foo_bar"
will actually resolve to "foo bar"; it is therefore recommended
that you explicitly disallow underscores in titles at the
application level so as to avoid this kind of confusion.
In reality, basically everyone using the wikitext module to power an
online wiki (that is, all of the users?) will want neat underscores
in their URLs rather than ugly "%20" escapes.

Fix breakage caused by recent Rails API changes
The API has now changed so many times in unfathomable (uncommented) ways

checks for all the myriad variations are just getting too complicated
and I can't justify maintaining them, especially seeing as I have no
intention of keeping old Rails installations on hand for the purposes of
testing.
The present version is tested and works with Rails 2.2.2. I actually had
a couple of intermediate, but uncommitted, unreleased changes, that I
needed to keep other versions of Rails working (2.1.0RC1, for example).
In the end those changes were short-lived because the API was changed
repeatedly afterwards.
In the latest rounds of changes, the "compilable?" method is no longer
checked, "call" is now invoked anyway, and Rails then proceeds to
evaluate the returned string as Ruby code in some unknown context where
"template" is a local variable! The "render" method is no longer called.
spec: prepend to load path to ensure development version gets tested
We were appending to the load path so we could conceivably end up with
a previously installed version of the extension getting tested instead
of the just-built version, so prepend instead.

commit adds a rails/init.rb file to make using the wikitext gem in a
Rails application even easier.
