By definition of erc-reuse-buffers, if non-nil it should create a
new buffer when joining channels with same names on different
servers. The current behavior of erc-reuse-buffers is:
1. when non-nil, it will always reuse the same channel buffer,
resulting in server A's channel gets reconnected to the channel with
the same name of server B.
2. when nil, the buffer-name of the joined channel is
'#channel/server'. However if one tries to '/join #channel' from the
server buffer, it creates a new empty buffer with buffer-name
'#channel', instead of opening the already-joined channel buffer.

* lisp/erc/erc.el (erc-generate-new-buffer-name): since `target' is
always non-nil, buffer-name is non-nil, erc-reuse-buffers is t, it
will always use the first candidate, resulting in behavior 1. This is
now fixed, and both channel buffers with the same name will be formated
'#channel/serverA' and '#channel/serverB' for the sake of consistency.

* lisp/erc/erc.el (erc-cmd-JOIN): with some refactoring, it ensures
the joined channel buffer is selected and thereby fixes behavior 2.
