Description

Currently radare2 disassembly shows both reflines and comments like "CODE XREF from ..." by default. @radare and me suggest that we can hide the "CODE XREF ..." lines if reflines are shown. At least by default. And show them once reflines are enabled. But user should be able to force enable the comments even with reflines shown as well.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Identify the code that renders reflines and XREF comments in disassembly output. Look for default settings and conditionals controlling XREF comments. Implement a new configuration option to hide XREF comments when reflines are shown, and ensure the default behavior matches the request. Also allow users to override the option.
