Description
Bikeshed prevents bibliography references from wrapping.
[data-link-type=biblio] {
white-space: pre;
}
For [[FOOBAR]], that's reasonable, but for [[FOOBAR inline]] or [[FOOBAR|some decently long replacement]] that's a lot less desirable.
Should that be fixed by adding a class=has-replacement-text (or similar) to such elements, and changing the selector to [data-link-type=biblio]:not(.has-replacement-text), or should we not mark such things as data-link-type=biblio, or something else?

Research direction
Start with the bibliography markup and the [data-link-type=biblio] CSS rule shown in the issue, then inspect how plain, inline, and replacement-text references are generated. The fix is done when ordinary bibliography references retain their current no-wrap behavior while inline and replacement-text entries can wrap appropriately.
