Fix: update_listing_in_buffer is clearing the buffer (Issue #921)

Problem:
        VimwikiGenerateTags and VimwikiDiaryGenerateLinks end up with empty wiki files
        when foldlevel=0 and g:vimwiki_folding='expr'

Solution:
        Set an initial foldlevel to 100 in update_listing in diary

Optionaly: Comment a little the big messy, geeky hack !
