Add support for <xref linkend="section-id" /> #14

We use xrefs with linkend extensively for links within a document. They function like olinks but there is no need to specify a targetdoc.

For example, this xref in the Admin Guide:

<xref linkend="change-signing-key" />

would reference the same section as the following olink:

<olink targetdoc="admin-guide targetptr="change-signing-key" />

The output from the two differs, but I don't think that is an issue for linktester.

Thanks,

David

Output is definitely not related to docbook-linktester. I believe that docbook-linktester already supports <xref> checking just fine.
