Description

As discussed with @bterlson. I would like to change emu-clause to allow adiff attribute. If the attribute is present, the section will be numbered with the number of the section with the same ID in the referenced document. It will also add a link to the matching section in the referenced document following the header. If the section does not exist in the referenced document, it should be an error.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by locating the handling for emu-clause, then trace how referenced documents, section IDs, numbering, and header links are currently resolved. Done means diff is accepted, matching sections receive the referenced numbering and link, and missing matches produce an error.
