Cannot override RaReferenceField defaultProps for link

[davidhenley]

The following does not override the default link type props:

import {defaultTheme} from "react-admin"

const Theme = {
  ...defaultTheme,
  components: {
    ...defaultTheme.components,
    RaReferenceField: {
      defaultProps: {
        link: "show"
      }
    }
  }
}

That's because we don't support overriding props via theming in react-admin. What you show is a material-ui feature for MUI components. This isn't documented anywhere for react-admin, and we won't implement it (as you can create your own derivatives by wrapping a react-admin component).
