links to the HelpBonfires room

[BerkeleyTrue]

add links where?

[dcsan]

add a link on each bonfire page to something like:

http://bot.freecodecamp.com/go
   ?topic=Check%20for%20Palindromes
   &who=dcsan
   &room=camperbot/HelpBonfires

when users are stuck on a bonfire we can provide a link:

http://bot.freecodecamp.com/go?topic=Check%20for%20Palindromes&who=dcsan&room=camperbot/HelpBonfires

click it and see how it works

this will send them into the main HelpBonfires chatroom, but will announce the bonfire they have a question on.

this is needed as I want to set the room topic so we can archive the chats later and tag them.
also it will set the topic of the discussion so i can show the relevant hints.
otherwise someone needs to manually tell the bot what the topic is, which is more complex/error prone.
