/page/1/ is redundant information

[Denis de Bernardy]

in the next/prev posts and post page links, paged=1 is redudant information.

Agreed.

i think it could cause damage, too: odds are googlebot might consider this a page with two addresses, i.e. spam

The patch I uploaded is dependent on this patch:
​http://mosquito.wordpress.org/view.php?id=1362

Otherwise, use $qstr = add_query_arg('paged', , $qstr); instead of remove_query_arg(), which is useless without the patch on 1362.

I did basic testing with mod_rewrite/query style setups and it seemed to work, but I'd appreciate testing. Basically, if $pagenum === 1, it does str_replace('page/1/', , $qstr); and remove_query_ary('paged', $qstr); to remove both the mod_rewrite and query style versions of the "first page."
