bug#14717: 24.3.50; Info-try-follow-nearest-node misses some footnotes

[Stephen Berman]

0. emacs -Q
1. Type `C-h i m Elisp RET m Using Interactive RET TAB TAB TAB' to put
   point on the left parent of the reference mark for footnote (1) in
   this node.
2. Type RET, expecting to jump to the footnote, but instead:
=> user-error: No such node or anchor: It may be a string; its contents
are a sequence of elements

The reason is that in Info-try-follow-nearest-node the search for a node
name succeeds, so it never gets to the footnote search, but the matching
string is not a node name, so user-error is signalled.  The following
patch makes the footnote search and hence jumping to the footnote in
that node succeed, but I'll defer to the judgment of the Info or regexp
gurus as to whether it's the best fix.
