Formerly resolve_xref() in Sphinx extension called get_objects() from
Sphinx API which subsequently iterated the whole list of objects,
causing single iteration per single reference, which is essentially.
O(n^2). Avoid using get_objects() and access internal dictionary
directly intead.
The docs build time was still dominated by other factors but speedup is
about 10 % on my machine.
