Expected or Desired Behavior
That there is no folder is created in Site Pages to house the converted pages when converting classic wiki pages to modern equivalent.
To explain in another way, I have a Wiki library named "Wiki Docs" with classic wiki pages. Conversion script points to new site collection site page library. After conversion is run, all new converted wiki pages live in a folder called "Wiki Docs" within site page library. I would like the pages to be converted directly into Site Page library without worrying about storing in a folder first.
Observed Behavior
Currently when converting classic wiki pages from classic site and using -TargetWebUrl to target site page library of a modern site. A folder is created named after the classic wiki library the pages are converted from.

Steps to Reproduce
Run Convert-WikiAndWebPartPages.ps1 with Wiki pages from classic wiki library and using -TargetWebUrl pointing to separate site collection site page library. Upon first successfully converted page, you will see a the page lives within a folder named after the old wiki library it came from.

Research direction
Start with Convert-WikiAndWebPartPages.ps1 and reproduce the conversion using -TargetWebUrl against a separate site collection. Trace where the first converted page is assigned its destination path; done means converted pages are placed directly in the target Site Pages library rather than a folder named after the source Wiki library.
