Implement dynamic crossref resolution and mapping
(Transfered from https://gna.org/bugs/?20407, since GNA does not seem to get
attention anymore)
Currently, the crossref resolution is hardcoded to the "crossref" field.
However, biblatex also has the field "xdata" which is used in a similar way
(note that biblatex's xref field must not be resolved, since it does not
inherit fields from the target.). Furthermore, biblatex does not do a
1:1-mapping, but maps fields more cleverly (author > bookauthor etc.).
The attached patch (against branch/0.6) implements this function.
* It dynamically resolves xdata entries (also multiple and nested ones)
* It implements proper crossref field mapping (via the kbstyle file; the syntax
should be self-explaining, but is also documented in the source).
I think this patch is a significant improvement for biblatex users.
The patch is the last version I posted over at GNA. I have tested it now in
real work for several weeks.
