Implemented Featured Content Handler for Link Directory Items

As per title, I've implemented a Featured Content Handler for the content type xa_ld_item.

This means that process of featuring/unfeaturing Link Directory content is now 100% handled by the Core XF Featured Content Handler.

You can use the Core XF Featured Content Widget Definition to create featured content widgets for Link Directory content (or mixed content). Display is controlled by Core XF Featured Content Layout types (Article, Simple, Carousel), not Link Directory Layout Types!

You can also continue to use the Link Directory Featured Items Widget Definition to create Features Items widgets for Link DIrectory content and display that content in Link Directory layout types.

Link Directory Index. Featured Items are still being displayed the same (based on Link Directory options).

Link Directory Category pages. Featured Items are still being displayed the same (based on Link Directory options).

Note: You can disable the Link Directory options and instead, create widget(s) from the Featured Content Widget Definition and display those on Link Directory Index/Category pages (which is what XFRM does).

There is unfortunately some feature loss. The Auto Feature system has been sunsetted (at least for now). It is not compatible with the Core XF Featured Content handler (and frankly, that kind of functionality needs to be part of the abstract handler).
