For eww-browse-url to be proper alternative in/as
browse-url-browser-function, it should implement opening in new buffer,
just like w3m-browse-url, w3-browse-url etc.  Following patch also
changes eww-follow-link to optionally make use of this.  Changed single
prefix to open in new eww buffer and double prefix to open externally,
because it seems like natural progression.
