Subject: [PATCH] Make cross-reference issue links work in markdown documents
 again (#28682)

In #26365 issue references were disabled entirely for documents,
intending to match GitHub behavior. However cross-references do appear
to work in documents on GitHub.

This is useful for example to write release notes in a markdown document
and reference issues. While the simpler syntax may create links when not
intended, hopefully the cross-reference syntax is unique enough to avoid
it.
