#' Get D-score reference
#'
#' The `get_reference()` function selects the D-score reference
#' distribution.
#'
#' @inheritParams dscore
#' @param references A `data.frame` with the same structure as `builtin_references`.
#' The default is to use `builtin_references`.
#' @param \dots Used to test whether the call contained the deprecated argument
#' `references`.
#' @return A `data.frame` with the LMS reference values.
#' @note No references for population `"gsed"` exist.
#' The function will silently rewrite `population = "gsed"`
#' into to the `population = "gsed"`.
#'
#' The `"dutch"` reference was published in Van Buuren (2014)
#' The `"gcdg"` was calculated from 15 cohorts with direct
#' observations (Weber, 2019).
#' The `"phase1"` references were calculated from the GSED Phase 1 validation
#' data (GSED-BGD, GSED-PAK, GSED-TZA) cover age range 2w-3.5 years. The
#' age range 3.5-5 yrs is linearly extrapolated and are only indicative.
#' The `"preliminary_standards"` references were calculated from the GSED
#' Phase 1 validation using a subset of children with healthy development.
