Hello,

I have code in my init that calls org-id-find to get the entry ID refers
to.  When the ID is non-existent, the function unintentionally changes
the major-mode of the current buffer.
[ This almost caused me to lose a PDF file, but thankfully I could
  recover it because of Emacs backup.  Admittedly this happened because
  I was half-panicking and half-confused.  ]

To reproduce,

    1. emacs -Q
    2. M-: (require 'org-id)
    3. Visit any file (M-x find-library RET org-id RET)
    4. M-: (org-id-find "non-existent")
    5. Witness the major-mode change

This all happens in org-id-find-id-in-file where when VISITING is
non-nil, the buffer is (re)used whether or not it was originally in
org-mode.  The problem is complicated by the use of find-file-noselect
when MARKERP argument to org-id-find is non-nil.  Perhaps,
org-id-find-id-file should check if the current-buffer is derived from
org-mode before returning the buffer-file-name. WDYT?
