Function constructPageIndex

Constructs a page list.

builds the page list, e.g. 1 ... 6 7 [8] 9 10 ... 15.
flexible_start causes it to use "url.page" instead of "url;start=page".
very importantly, cleans up the start value passed, and forces it to be a multiple of num_per_page.
checks that start is not more than max_value.
base_url should be the URL without any start parameter on it.
uses the compactTopicPagesEnable and compactTopicPagesContiguous settings to decide how to display the menu.

an example is available near the function definition. $pageindex = constructPageIndex($scripturl . '?board=' . $board, $_REQUEST['start'], $num_messages, $maxindex, true);

Parameters summary
`string`	`$base_url`	The basic URL to be used for each link.
`integer`	`& $start`	$start The start position, by reference. If this is not a multiple of the number of items per page, it is sanitized to be so and the value will persist upon the function's return.
`integer`	`$max_value`	The total number of items you are paginating for.
`integer`	`$num_per_page`	The number of items to be displayed on a given page. $start will be forced to be a multiple of this value.
`boolean`	`$flexible_start = false`	Whether a ;start=x component should be introduced into the URL automatically (see above)
`boolean`	`$show_prevnext = true`	Whether the Previous and Next links should be shown (should be on only when navigating the list)

Return value summary
`string`	The complete HTML of the page index that was requested, formatted by the template.
