* (docs): fix examples for .dir-locals.el
Two items:
1. The current example does not work; in order to call a function wihtin
`.dir-locals.el`, you should use `eval`.
- [StackExchange](https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/21955/calling-functions-in-dir-locals-in-emacs)
- [Working
example buried in an issue](https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam/issues/1527#issuecomment-933674233))
- `(info "(emacs)Directory Variables")`
2. Add clear instruction to use an absolute path to define `org-roam-directory` in
this context (it's buried in this [issue](https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam/issues/1459#issuecomment-817259656).
* (docs)Fix the `eval` example for subdirectories.
Comment: https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam/pull/2002#issuecomment-991830879
The eval form that uses relative path sets the local variable *relative to the
org file*. This means the eval form woudl need to locate the relevant
`.dir-locals` file by traversing the directory tree upwards from the
file (lightly tested to wrok)
Using absolute path (the first example) should be fine without change (not tested)
* update texi
* (docs) minor correction to #2002
Correcting the example of .dir-locals using an absolute path to avoid confusion.
Lightly tested with a real absolute path in my system; works on my end with a
subdir.

Support caching the new Org 9.5 citations.
Because citations now has first-class support, and are treated
differently from links, they are now cached in their own table.
Org-ref citations, instead of being stored in the links table, are now
stored in the citations table instead.
To use a citation as a ROAM_REF, use the `@citeKey` syntax
This name will better reflect the current purpose of the property. At
the beginning of the v2 it would only trigger for the new nodes (hence
:if-new), but through the development it's no longer the case, though
the behavior various from each type of the target.
As for now, this will be soft deprecated and won't be strictly enforced
at the user.
Detangle the codebase and change how dependencies are resolved to
allow the package to better modularize and load itself without
introducing circular dependencies, especially when autoloads involved.
This adds the whole new section in `org-roam-mode.el` for node dedicated
buffers, with a new global command `org-roam-buffer-display-dedicated`,
which supersedes `org-roam-buffer` command.
Along the way this also refactors the code for the persistent buffers to
clean it up, make it more clear in what it does, improve its robustness,
and to make it play nice with the dedicated buffers.
* (doc): Add section for C Compiler
In the Post-Installation Tasks section, I suggest to add a sub-section for the C
compiler requirement for emacsql-sqlite. I have put an explanation for Windows
-- I have tried to make it as succinct as I can without losing some fine points
that I believe important for users to avoid confusion.
I have just removed MSYS2 and the PATH on my Windows machine and repeated the
process as I described it here to confirm that it works.
Since this new part is distinct from the existing paragraphs for SQLite, I also
suggest a sub-section heading for them -- I used "SQLite" as its title.
Please feel feel to change any part as you see fit.
It might be also useful if macOS users added their parts. I believe XCode is the
easiest way to install a C compiler (I believe it would be clang for recent
XCode versions) or perhaps brew. I don't use macOS so I will refrain from adding
this part..
I did not add .texi file to this commit -- last time, I believe you had to
revise the texi file that my machine generated anyway. Let me know if I should
follow up with a texi file.

* (doc): Add file-truename to set org-roam-directory
Refer this debuging Slack exchange:
https://orgroam.slack.com/archives/CV160S8EL/p1619089118195300
Not using `file-truename` to set
`org-roam-directory` can lead to an issue that is
hard to identify.
It appears that cache database may updates with
files but `org-roam-buffer` fails to find the file
as symbolic links do not resolve. This is
confusing as the table query to the table seems to
return what appears to be correct entries, but the
backlink fails to insert context around the
link (as Org-roam fails to find the file).
There have been similiar issues -- by making sure
`file-truename` is added in the documentation and
README, it is hoped to eliminate such issues to
recur.
This is probably relevant for V2.
* undo changes to texi

Follow on to #1345.
The discussion in the Slack thread further clarified what was exactly
confusing for a beginner reader of this Getting Started. When a user is using
the built-in completion (no ivy, no ido), then `org-roam-find-file` does not
immediately show any files -- instead, the user has to press TAB. This is not
explicitly mentioned.
Every file has a title when saved into the database, so this function is
redundant in most cases (e.g. in org-roam-buffer, where backlinks are
fetched from the database).
