[r=benji,sladen] [r=benji][bug=808282] add recommended_canonical_url, feeding <link rel=canonical>

Description of the change

Per discussion in bug 808282, it's possible Launchpad can help search engines give better results by sending <link rel=canonical> on bug pages. This adds a general mechanism for doing this and does it on bug pages.

This looks good.

I would have been tempted to call the method canonical_canonical_url.

The comment in the test doesn't quite parse though:

# Hardcode this to avoid be sure we've really got what we expected.

Removing the word "avoid" sheems appropriate.

review: Approve (code)

Are you serious? Or did you mean recommended_canonical_url, which
could be good.

Looks excellent.

What's the thinking these days between promoting the following?:

a. bugs.launchpad.net/…
b. launchpad.net/bugs/…

(the first is sent out in emails, but the latter is shorter and avoids the duplication). Looking at the returned 'Location:' headers, both entry points return http://bugs.launchpad.net/context/… in a single step.

I believe the plan is to eventually reunify everything on to a single
domain. There has been some launchpad-dev discussion. It is not a
top priority though.
