patch 9.1.1123: popup hi groups not falling back to defaults

Problem:  Highlight groups PopupSelected/PopupNotification/
          MessageWindow are supposed to fall back to default highlight
          groups if they are not defined. However, once a colorscheme
          has defined them, switching to another colorscheme that
          doesn't do so will leave behind a cleared colorscheme, which
          causes the fallback to fail.

Solution: Set up default links to the relevant fallback highlight
          groups, which makes sure a `:hi clear` command will reset the
          state properly (Yee Cheng Chin).

closes: #16676
