Permalink/Scale throws error if given an element

[crschmidt]

The Permalink control passes an element as the first parameter, however, the initialize.apply is called with the arguments object, which causes an error if an element is passed into the control.

Tests pass in FF. Needs to be run in IE

all tests pass in IE, except for WrapDateline, though I am fairly confident that those test failures are independent of this patch. please commit.

(In [4333]) "The Permalink control passes an element as the first parameter, however, the initialize.apply is called with the arguments object, which causes an error if an element is passed into the control." Also applied to Scale. Now fixed with review from e-dog. (Closes #978) Fixes the only problem I found with migrating the Boston freemap to 2.5.
