We present an error if people go to an illegal title in addition to only
linking internal links that have characters from Title::legalChars() (as well
as % for % encoding [not that it's needed] and # for fragments.) in them.
MediaWiki is designed to use redlinks to help guide people to create new
articles. If there were red links to invalid page title's, it'd be confusing.

The parser needs to normalize things like [[%65]] -> [[e]] since such things
are considered a perfectly valid Title. In fact the parser generally needs to
turn an internal link into a Title object. Invalid title's don't really have
mappings to Title objects.
