Subject: [PATCH] Keep old way to find short links to not break existing ones

I realized that every single existing link created with v4-2.8 or
earlier would break since it relies on the value of $_GET['l'].
This will keep the old links working, and to reduce server load a
little bit, we will exit after those header statements
