Citation Mode

The mode of a `Cite`.

There are two main citation modes: parenthetical and narrative (a.k.a textual). See https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/citations/basic-principles/parenthetical-versus-narrative for an explanation.

This property is optional and tools are recommended to assume parenthetical if missing.

Narrative citations will usually be of form "As noted by Smith (1992)," but narrative-author allows for "In the early nineties, Smith noted" and narrative-year allows for "As noted by Smith in 1992 and 1993".

Pandoc's CitationMode enumeration has Normal (for parenthetical), AuthorInText (for textual), and SuppressAuthor (for textual-year). See https://github.com/jgm/pandoc-types/blob/0158cd0e2a2ca9d6f14389a1a57bc64cab45a7dd/src/Text/Pandoc/Definition.hs#L353.

LaTeX's natbib package has \citep{} (for parenthetical), \citet{} (for textual), \citeauthor{} (for textual-author), \citeyear{} (for textual-year). See https://www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/Natbib_citation_styles.
