Bug: WikiSyntax makeup disables WikiWords autolinking

Typing something like this _WikiWord_ does not result in WikiWord.
Neither *WordWord*, nor __WordWord__ ...

Test case

Insert _SomethingLikeThis_ and see on result.

This happens because ([\s\(])($regex{wikiWordRegex}) regex on line 1092 in TWiki/Render.pm cannot recognize makeuped WikiWord

1091    # 'TopicName' link:
1092    s/([\s\(])($regex{wikiWordRegex})/&internalLink($1,$theWeb,$2,$2,"",1)/geo;

To solve this I added additional " ", space symbol, before $2 in lines 1044-1046.

1041    # Emphasizing
...
1044    s/([\s\(])__([^\s]+?|[^\s].*?[^\s])__([\s\,\.\;\:\!\?\)])/$1<strong><em> $2<\/em><\/s
1045    s/([\s\(])\*([^\s]+?|[^\s].*?[^\s])\*([\s\,\.\;\:\!\?\)])/$1<strong> $2<\/strong>$3/g
1046    s/([\s\(])_([^\s]+?|[^\s].*?[^\s])_([\s\,\.\;\:\!\?\)])/$1<em> $2<\/em>$3/g;

This is spec, autolinks are only done if WikiWords are preceeded by white space or parenthesis. This reduces the likelihood of false links. If you need links with markup write for example *[[WebNotify]]* to get a bold WebNotify link. We would break existing content if we change the link rule.
