bxc# is promised as a shortcut, but doesn't work

https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_Patches_guidelines#Current_set_of_abbreviations lists bxc to redirect to the Xamarin bug tracker, but it doesn't work. See https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/325329. I believe https://github.com/openSUSE/open-build-service/blob/master/docs/api/api/issue_tracker.xml has to be edited. However not in the source repository, but the production system.
It exists as Xamarin#(\d+) tag. A change may make older usages incompatible, so please fix the wiki page instead.
You may want to use osc api /issue_trackers to get the full list. The mentioned file above is just a docu example. Real config lives in the database and needs migrations, if want to have it on all OBS instances.
I maintain Mono for SUSE and no one used the undocumented Xamarin#(\d+) which looks like a mistake to me. Please change it to bxc# which I also used in the past according to our guidelines. I can't edit past .changes files for stuff added to Factory. Also not using a three letter abbreviation is inconsistent towards everything else.
