Improved 500 error page for Wikipedia Mobile

Description

When the mobile site is down (for whatever reason), it needs an escape link to go to the normal (non-mobile) site. It's incredibly frustrating and nasty to hit an error page you can't get around when you know the (regular) site is up and running.

Version: .5
Severity: normal

The mobile site was having a rough day, but we should
always make sure this is an option... even in error
states.
