#4536: PATHINFO permalinks do not play well with custom tag/category prefixes

PATHINFO permalinks (starting with {{{/index.php/}}}) don't play well with
custom tag/category prefixes.
example:
{{{
Permalinks:
/index.php/%postname%/
Category Prefix:
/topic
Tag Prefix:
/taxonomy
}}}
Issues:
1. "You should update your .htaccess now." message is flashed, but
nothing is provided to copy/paste
1. Tag and Category URLs do not work.
1. Even if you figure out what should be in .htaccess, paging for
categories and tags wil be broken
All of the above happen because we now have a mix of PATHINFO and
mod_rewrite permalinks. Permalink structure should be the authoritative
PATHINFO/mod_rewrite decider. If {{{/index.php/}}} is at the start of the
permalink structure, it should also be automatically (and maybe silently)
added to the front of the category/tag prefixes.
This is an issue for 2.2.1 as well (although obviously only for
categories).
