Merge branch 'rs-issue-1721' into 'master'

Fix link_to_gfm with only a reference having the incorrect link

Before:

```ruby
link_to_gfm("#4", "/foo")     # => "<a href="/namespace/project/issues/4" class="gfm gfm-issue">#4</a>"
link_to_gfm("See #4", "/foo") # => "<a href="/foo">See </a><a href="/namespace/project/issues/4" class="gfm gfm-issue">#4</a>"
```

After:

```ruby
link_to_gfm("#4", "/foo")     # => "<a href="/foo">#4</a>"
link_to_gfm("See #4", "/foo") # => "<a href="/foo">See </a><a href="/namespace/project/issues/4" class="gfm gfm-issue">#4</a>"
```

Closes #192
Closes #1721
