/**
* Retrieves a page given its title.
*
* If more than one post uses the same title, the post with the smallest ID will be returned.
* Be careful: in case of more than one post having the same title, it will check the oldest
* publication date, not the smallest ID.
* If more than one post uses the same title, which one is returned is not deterministic,
* as the query used to find the post does not specify an order.
*
* Because this function uses the MySQL '=' comparison, $page_title will usually be matched
* as case-insensitive with default collation.
