quest::varlink() patch

[c0ncrete]

this one defaults to SoF instead of titanium.

it also isn't quite as ignorant as my last one. i was calling MakeItemLink via the quest's owner instead of the initiator, so it'd obviously rarely see a client and instead fall through to the default format (derp). now it prefers to use the quest's initiator, but will fall back to the owner. if neither is found, it produces an error.
