Ok.  In theory this could be useful if somebody wants to do something
weird, but I agree it is not really needed to document it.

This sets the href=, but not the node name.  For instance if
TOP_NODE_UP_URL is set to "toto.com/somewhere/" and the
texinfo code is simply

@node Top

the link will be like 
 Up: <a href="toto.com/somewhere/">(dir)</a>

For CHECK_HTMLXREF you said that it was on in the default case.
Currently it is untrue, and I think that it is better if it is not set
in the default case.
