Description

The model sometimes copies an entry's reference into its rewritten description. The built-in renderer strips it (neutralizeDescriptionRefs), but templates print the description and then append the entry's refs, so #614's notes showed (#608) (#608).

• New core helper removeDescriptionRefs: removes the given refs from a description and leaves every other ref (and inline code) as written. Escaping and linking stay with the renderers.
• enhance and enhance-and-categorize now remove the entry's own refs (issueIds and prNumber) from the description the model returns, so every renderer gets a clean description.

Summary

Removes an entry’s own issue and pull-request references from model-rewritten descriptions before renderers receive them.

• Rewritten release notes no longer repeat an entry's own references.

Acknowledged follow-up: goosewobbler states that a notes-level regression test through enhanceAndCategorize is still to add.
