I want to export a subtree of a file, but that subtree has links to
headings in the file that are outside of the subtree. I expect the
exporting process to produce some sort of valid result, but instead it
throws an "Unable to resolve link" error. Here's a test file to
reproduce:

* Foo
* Bar :export:
[[*Foo][Foo]]

Making a file with those contents and trying to export it to e.g.
latex will fail, but if the :export: tag is removed, exporting
succeeds. I can't easily get a backtrace because the error comes from
user-error, but it happens in org-export-resolve-fuzzy-link.

Of course the exported file can't link to a target that doesn't exist,
but it's probably better to strip out the link in this case than to
throw an error, right?
