Feature: #80619 - Extend Link Generation within TypoLink

See forge#80619

Description

Generating a link to a page, email, url, email in the TYPO3 Frontend is usually handled via the so-called typolink functionality. Generating links is now flexible, extensions can register their own link-building functionality via $GLOBALS[TYPO3_CONF_VARS][FE][typolinkBuilder][$linkType] in the extensions ext_localconf.php.

All existing functionality for TypoLink via TypoScript etc. still works as before.

Impact

The TYPO3 Core itself handles all native link types (email, url, page, record, file, folder) via this functionality already, and it can be overridden.

The functionality goes hand-in-hand with the LinkService registration functionality for setting links of a specific type.
