28.0.50; [bug] Inside help buffers escaped symbol[s] causing a problem.

[Achilles Yuce]

Hello Everyone,

After using `org-store-link`; i was expecting to jump back to what i
stored which is the buffer to see after evaluating (describe-symbol '\`)
but instead i got an `user-error` as you can see in [Recent messages:]
section in this report. I believe this shouldn't be the case. My exact
steps included in [Losage:] section.

FWIW I somehow managed to fix it by removing the '\'s from the captured
string defined in lisp/org/ol.el file. Also adding diff output.

Sincerely,
