#7503: Don't redirect back to permalink after editing from Edit This link

 [8531] fixes a bug which restores the "feature" where we redirect back to
 the permalink page for a post after editing that post.  This happens when
 one clicks "Edit This" from a post's permalink page and then saves.
 Compare this to clicking "Edit This" from the front page which does not
 redirect back to the front page after saving.  Instead, it reloads the
 edit page and displays, "Post updated. Continue editing below or go back."
 where "go back" is a link to the referrer.  The behavior between the two
 is inconsistent and confusing.  The preferred behavior seems to be
 reloading the edit page and displaying the "go back" link.  I think we
 should lose the "redo" code in favor of always displaying "go back".  This
 restores the behavior from 2.5 and 2.6 before [8531] fixed "redo".
