Add option to set a character which replaces spaces when creating links.

The wikilocal option links_space_char will be used to replace any spaces
when creating a new wiki link and page. This only affects link creation
with a visual selection.

+Description~
+Set the character (or string) used to replace spaces when creating a link. For
+example, setting '_' would transform the string 'my link' into [[my_link]] and
+the created file would be my_link.wiki. The default behavior does not replace
+spaces.
