Body with some footnote[^1].

[^1]: footnote text references itself[^1].

Body with some footnote1.

We spin into an infinite loop on this even in tree.rs, before even getting to selectors or output.

Footnotes

  1. footnote text references itself1. ↩ ↩2

Note that this can also happen with a mult-node hop; footnote [^1] references [^2] which references [^1].

@yshavit
handle footnotes that contain footnotes or links
09e5689 
Links can't contain other links or footnotes -- but footnotes can
contain either. Add tests and logic to handle it.

Resolves #98.

I found #188 (footnotes that cycle back to themselves) while writing
tests for this, but that's a special case, so I'm going to handle it
separately.
