It's now possible to create ItemPage redirects. We should implement this functionality in Pywikibot too

From https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php

* action=wbcreateredirect *
  API module for creating Entity redirects.

This module requires read rights
This module requires write rights
This module only accepts POST requests
Parameters:
  from                - Entity ID to make a redirect
  to                  - Entity ID to point the redirect to
  token               - A 'csrf' token retrieved from action=query&meta=tokens
                        This parameter is required
  bot                 - Mark this edit as bot
                        This URL flag will only be respected if the user belongs to the group "bot".
Example:
  Turn Q11 into a redirect to Q12:
    api.php?action=wbcreateredirect&from=Q11&to=Q12

This should be two parts: Part in site and part in page.

In bug 71979 we're tracking Page.makeRedirectPage(self, page)
