Description

When using Special:Redirect/logid for non-en wikis there are three server redirects

Start request GET /core/index.php/Spezial:Weiterleitung?wptype=logid&wpvalue=1212
Start request GET /core/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&logid=1212
Start request GET /core/index.php?title=Spezial:Logbuch&logid=1212

It should be possible to redirect directly to the target

Start request GET /core/index.php/Spezial:Weiterleitung?wptype=logid&wpvalue=1212
Start request GET /core/index.php?title=Spezial%3ALogbuch&logid=1212

Should avoid the canonical url redirects from english alias to the canonical alias
