Discovered today that while

:help netrw

takes me to pi_netrw.txt, and most of the time help on a particular
file-name takes me there:

:help motion.txt

for some reason

:help pi_netrw.txt

doesn't take me to that file.

I did notice that motion.txt has an explicit "motion.txt" help-target
on its first line and all the other entries in $VIMRUNTIME/doc/pi_*.txt
have the "pi_" prefix on that first line, so I'm guessing this is just
an oversight and pi_netrw.txt should includ the "pi_" prefix?

Thanks Tim, this got lost in the process of moving to
pack/dist/opt/netrw

I'll put it back in https://github.com/vim/vim/pull/16974

Thanks,
Christian
