6.11 beta 2: Notes uses the wrong Bible datatype with some Bible references

To reproduce:

  1. Make sure your default Bible is a standard English text. That sets the default Bible datatype.
  2. Now, in notes, type in the reference "Psalm 31.9-16" and press space.
  3. The reference again becomes a hyperlink. Now, hover over the link whilst holding CTRL. 

Result:

  • If you hover over the "-16", then you get the correct Bible range, as expected.
  • If you hover over the "Psa 31.9" you get a difference verse shown. It's still Psalm 31:9 but it's using the LXX-R datatype, which maps to a different verse altogether.
  • The screenshots below demonstrate the issue.

Expected result:

  • Psalm 31:9-16 will be shown using the default Bible datatype, no matter where you hover.
