bug#48493: 28.0.50; quit-window doesn't work

What is the desired behavior of a dedicated window here ?
Must *Messages* be displayed after we killed *Backtrace* in the first
place ?

I think so, yes.

Then I suppose that the dedicated window parameter must be restored
after a kill-buffer accordingly; this solve the previous test but
ask for more modifications.

I am testing a version of this.

[...] When
*Messages* is killed, the window should have no more previous buffers to display and we should be able to kill it. But `switch-to-prev-buffer' shows the "next" buffer instead. Try to come up with a solution that does not reintroduce Bug#48493 and deletes the window when no previous
buffer is found.

I can modify to `switch-to-prev-buffer' (and its sibling
`switch-to-prev-buffer') to return nil instead of the current buffer;
however the result is the same : the window rest in place with an
undesired buffer inside.
Note that we may want that anyway if it can solve the cases where
`quit-restore-window' display the same buffer again.

I am still looking to find what may be messing the prev-buffers list.
