expose glossary entry link on hover

[shimizukawa]

It would be nice if hovering over the right side of the header to a glossary entry would expose a link in the same way that Sphinx does for function definitions, etc.

Observe the difference here, for example:

http://docs.python.org/dev/glossary.html#glossary

Otherwise, there doesn't seem to be a convenient way to get the URL to a glossary entry.

Here is a patch that I tested against the Sphinx documentation. This is my first Sphinx patch, so my apologies in advance if I have overlooked anything.

Wasn't exactly obvious to me what the ticket is referring to, so just adding that it's this ¶ entry that it's after:

This was added in #8752 and is a duplicate of #1638 , and so can be closed.
