[ESS] Hyperlinks in help pages

[A.J. Rossini]

Depends on how one implements the linkage and which versions one wants to use.

Emacsen can hyperlink without any problems, using whatever markup you
want (i.e. I use Muse / Muse-planner for project documentation and
planning).

A solution shouldn't need to require w3; however , the closest to a
solution currently uses it.   But perhaps that approach should be
thrown away.

i.e. It's going to require someone to take it on as a project.
