------------------------------------------------------------------------
Org enters an infinite loop when `org-replace-escapes' is called with
a table containing a replace string that contains the escape sequence
it should be replaced with.
Example:
,----
| (org-replace-escapes "%m" '(("%m" . "87zl0qq1f3.wl%maus.da...@gmail.com")))
`----
I stumpled upon when I tried to store a link to a internet message
whose message id contained the sequence "%m" (perfectly valid for a
message id) while using "%m" as message description.
Attached patch fixes this by
1. detecting such 'self reference' and replacing the offending
sequence in the replace string by a string with a text property
that contains the original sequence
2. replacing occurences of substrings with this text property by the
original sequence.
