Pull request overview
This PR improves performance for author search results by using slugged URLs directly in links, avoiding unnecessary redirects from the short form (/authors/OL123A) to the canonical form (/authors/OL123A/Author_Name).
Key changes:
- Constructs slugged author URLs using
urlsafe()function in the template - Fixes inconsistent indentation (tabs to spaces) in the author search results section

Small perf fix. Was also hoping it might help with #11611 , in case the referer is dropped during a 301, but that appears to not be the case.
