Revert "Add + as a special reference for to GFM Autocomplete"

Notes to reviewers and maintainers

This does not target master branch. I want to get this merged into 264441-revert-special-references-for-vulnerabilities branch before into master.

What does this MR do?

This MR reverts Add + as a special reference for to GFM Autocomplete related to taking the "+" symbol as a reference prefix for Vulnerabilities (#222483 (closed)). The decision to revert the functionallity was made in #264441 (comment 429187245)

Remaining changes

Rationale: Reverting this will not bring any problems and introduces more noise. Instead I only removed methods related to references

Rationale: This doesn't interfere with any existing functionallity and we will leverage this independently of the chosen reference prefix
