Telescope picker for links

[Liquidmantis]

🚀 The feature, motivation and pitch

I'm hoping I just haven't been able to find the documentation, but it would be great if there was a Telescope picker for markdown links in a buffer. Having to move to a link to open it is slow in comparison.

@Liquidmantis that's an interesting idea! Would def be a nice feature, and not too hard to implement. I think we have most of the pieces implemented already, like a function for finding all references in a string of text.

I haven't had much time but was starting to poke around to understand how it would be implemented to see if I could take a stab at it. I was thinking Treesitter would make it reasonably straightforward.

I currently use urlview, but it doesn't support markdown links. Here's an example of the experience with it, though.

I was just thinking about a "goto next link" and "goto previous link" mapping. A different way of solving a very similar issue.

Currently treesitter offers nodes for inline_links. Raw urls are not covered.

Here is an example:

Building something like a telescope picker for this should be reasonable straight forward.

This is a great little feature.
