Problem/Motivation

@larowlan posted a simplified patch for #1801268: Change link field 'title' field to 'link text' β†’ but this leaves a few unresolved issues that should be fixed.

Proposed resolution

Variables should be renamed, renderable link arrays need to be fixed, upgrade paths addressed, etc. As @falcon03 says 'I still think that having "link text" assigned to a $title or $link_title variable is really confusing from a novice developer point of view.'

So if we can reduce the confusion in D8, great!

Remaining tasks

The above mentioned tasks need to be assigned to a contributor.

User interface changes

As mentioned above.

API changes

None.
