 Construct a relative url to the first parameter from the page named by the
 second. The first parameter can be either a page name, or some other
 destination file, as registered by `will_render`.

+If the third parameter is passed and is true, the url will be a fully
+absolute url. This is useful when generating an url to publish elsewhere.
