Shows to insert PAGEREF fields to display the relative location of bookmarks.

    insert_and_name_bookmark(builder, 'MyBookmark1')
    # Insert a PAGEREF field that displays what page a bookmark is on.
    # Set the InsertHyperlink flag to make the field also function as a clickable link to the bookmark.
    self.assertEqual(' PAGEREF  MyBookmark3 \\h', insert_field_page_ref(builder, 'MyBookmark3', True, False, 'Hyperlink to Bookmark3, on page: ').get_field_code())
    # We can use the \p flag to get the PAGEREF field to display
    # the bookmark's position relative to the position of the field.
    # Bookmark1 is on the same page and above this field, so this field's displayed result will be "above".
    self.assertEqual(' PAGEREF  MyBookmark1 \\h \\p', insert_field_page_ref(builder, 'MyBookmark1', True, True, 'Bookmark1 is ').get_field_code())
