vim-patch:9.1.1357: Vim incorrectly escapes tags with "[" in a help buffer

Problem:  Vim incorrectly escapes tags containing "[" in a help buffer
Solution: check if the buffer has the "help" filetype set, instead of
          already being a help buffer (Phạm Bình An)

fixes: vim/vim#17224
closes: vim/vim#17232
