Allow to configure translation per property on link fields (for translating only the title, not the url itself)

This issue is being reviewed by the kind folks in Slack, #needs-review-queue-initiative. We are working to keep the size of Needs Review queue [2700+ issues] to around 400 (1 month or less), following Review a patch or merge request → as a guide.

Think it's a valid request to be able to translate links but isn't that already possible?

During content translation you can change the title text to the language you are translating too.

If the desire is to use for user interface translation not sure that's the correct way but tagging for subsystem maintainer for their thoughts. Would also leverage the #contribute slack channel.

@smustgrave Right now, you can translate all or nothing. The issue is about adding that granularity. You might want to let translators translate the link title, but not the url destination itself.

Adding screenshot so it's more clear.

We did something very similar for image fields lately so don't see why links could be any different.

I rerolled @penyaskito's #4 patch on 11.x in a new MR

Rerolled on the latest 11.x
+ added the ability to configure link options translatability (might be used by contrib like Link Target → )

Thanks for reviving, Moving to NW for test coverage.

Hi all,

I add a patch for version 10.3 and 11 because the one that is visible now only works for 10.2.
