Protects a string that will be wrapped in wiki italic markup '' ... ''

Note: We cannot use <i> for italics, as the expected behavior for italics specified by ''...'' in the title is that

they will be inverted (i.e. unitalicized) in the resulting references. In addition, <i> and '' tend to interact

poorly under Mediawiki's HTML tidy.

Applies styling to various parameters. Supplied string is wrapped using a message_list configuration taking one

argument; protects italic styled parameters. Additional text taken from citation_config.presentation - the reason

this function is similar to but separate from wrap_msg().
