Restore "whatlinkshere" and "related changes" links in sidebar for classic skin

Description

The links "Whatlinkshere" and "Related changed" have been removed from the sidebar of classic skin in r44780. It seems they may be redundant but wanted (see url). Some people on dewiki also complained about it, so I would suggest to just restore them, unless there are other resóns for removing them, that I'm not aware of.

Additionally, in r44788 the link to Special:RecentChanges at the top of the page got lost. It should also be restored for easier navigation.

"What links here" is a vital tool when deleting pages, and should be restored as soon as possible. Having to scroll down to the bottom of the page to find a link to it is not acceptable.~~~~

Those two now reverted in r45257.
