Link references should be allowed

Why does this format not work? For the end user will be the same. We want the reference to be able to link to the same URL in the description of applications using this library.

See the workaround I had to do in https://github.com/ohenley/awesome-ada/pull/111/files. We'd like to not have to repeat the URL anywhere. See ohenley/awesome-ada#109 (comment)

Can you include the lint error you get?

Is it possible to disable only this specific check? I tried with this:

<!--lint disable awesome-list-item-->

but it disables some other checks that I wouldn't like to lose, like starting a description with a lower-case letter.

getting this to pass looks easy enough -- instead of a link the first child element is a linkReference, in list-item.js that could look like

function validateListItemLink(link, file) {

	// TODO: confirm reference exists
	if (link.type === "linkReference") {
		return true;
	}

....

but then there's no guarantee the reference is actually defined. I've no idea how that could or should be done

- [neverlinked] - This won't get flagged even though the reference is meaningless.

oh maybe undefined references will be caught by noUndefinedReferences already used in config.js!
