When multi-repos are used, the resulting pending_xref's generated from including the source code don't get a 'refdoc' property and the intersphinx 'missing-resolver' is unable to adjust relative paths in a way that links between different projects work.
This fixes the issue by adding a transform that fixes pending_xrefs that match some pre-requisites, create a new copy with the 'refdoc' property added and let intersphinx's missing-resolver fix the URI.
