TracLinks "''source''" could not use line number only without first giving a specific revision

[bryan@…]

Specifying line number without revision might not be reasonable, but from time to time, I found it annoying to specify the revision when I'm targeting to the same tag directory.

I think having such flexibility might be a good thing. For example, this makes "source:/path/name@#L10" work.

You could already achieve this by specifying head as the revision, but I'm going to implement your suggestion anyway because it nicely addresses the concerns I had that omitting the revision might be accidental: if source:path@#L100 is allowed but not source:path#L100, it's clear that you left out the revision number intentionally.

See also #3644.

Implemented in r3747.
