I pasted the diffs at the end. There are a lot because it touched a lot of
files, and I committed each one separately, and forgot a few commits
that ended up as extras. Probably some could be combined and squashed if

I did all of this in the commits that are listed below. There is no formal
deprecation on org-add-link-type, other than a note in the docstring.

I still haven't touched anything in contrib.
