feat: implement the wiki field in the issue domain

format.md listed `wiki:` among the domain fields, between depends and
origin, and issue.py had never heard of it. The field fell into extra and
rendered with the foreign keys — sorted in after the sync fields, which
the same document forbids one line below the table. Written without
brackets it parsed as a single string, and nothing but a text editor
could set it.

Implemented rather than de-documented: page_ls.py --titles already
prints these titles, so the field was designed and only unwired.
DOMAIN_KEYS and LIST_KEYS learn it, Issue carries it, and issue_new.py
gets a repeatable --wiki flag.

Titles only, as the format says: no path, no sub_url, no lookup. The
tracker has no field for it, so it is never sent and a pull does not
bring it back — format.md now says so.

Closes #32

+
+The bug: `references/format.md` put `wiki:` in the table of domain fields,
+between `depends` and `origin`, and `issue.py` had never heard of it. The
+field fell into `extra` and rendered with the foreign keys — sorted in beside
+`branch`, `gitea`, `synced`, `url`, i.e. AFTER the sync fields, which the same
+document forbids one line further down. A list written without brackets parsed
+as a single string, and nothing could set the field but a text editor.
+
+These tests pin the resolution: implemented in the domain, rendered among the
+domain fields, parsed as a list in both forms, and reachable from the command
+line. The layer rule rides along — a title is a name for a document, so the
+field carries titles and this layer never resolves one.
