Description

The ref guide currently has one or more links to some javadocs that are no longer in our user apis. unfortunately they link via a google search which prevents the dead link detector from finding them.

e.g. in architecture.adoc

Instead, they create small files similar to symbolic link files, named link:http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fhbase.apache.org%2Fapidocs%2Forg%2Fapache%2Fhadoop%2Fhbase%2Fio%2FReference.html&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNEkCbADZ3CgKHTtGYI8bJVwp663CA[Reference files], which point to either the top or bottom part of the parent store file according to the split point.

We should instead directly link to the correct location, e.g. http://hbase.apache.org/devapidocs/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/io/Reference.html
