Update redirects to replace the url rather than navigate to a new one
Current links from outside (like the wiki) will cause excess history
entries when clicking the https://help.libreoffice.org/ link,
breaking the back button.
See the example of the visited pages below. Ideally only the referring
page and the final page should be in the history, allowing the user to
navigate back.
1. https://help.libreoffice.org/Main_Page
2. https://help.libreoffice.org/ - 302 redirect
3. https://help.libreoffice.org/help.html - window.location.href
4. https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/index.html - window.location.href
5. https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/en-US/text/shared/05/new_help.html?&DbPAR=WRITER&System=UNIX
The second 302 redirect is fine as it simply replaces the history. The
two window.location.href assigments however should be replaced with
window.location.replace.
