Block Reference
===============
Defines a field type Block reference which creates a relationship to a block
and allows the block to be displayed as the content of the field.

Installation
------------
- Install this module using the official Backdrop CMS instructions at
https://backdropcms.org/guide/modules

- Create a new blockreference field on any fieldable entity (node,
taxonomy_term, etc.)

Theming
-------
To assist in theming blocks that are displayed using the block reference
module, the block reference element is available in the $variables array in
template_preprocess_block().

The element can be found at:

$variables['elements']['#blockreference_element']

Note that the element will not be there for non-blockreference blocks so you
should first check the existence of the element before using its contents.

Notes
-----
- Relationships are saved using the block's `delta` + `module`.

Issues
------
