DB changes: 1) Add link columns to "normalized" tables. All such in-memory tables have an attribute self.link_map. 2) Add API to set and get links for fields 3) get_metadata now includes an attribute giving the link maps for the book. Book link maps are cached. 4) ProxyMetadata can return link maps 5) Added a test for the API. URL Scheme: 1) Added a "book-details" URL that asks calibre to open a book info window on a book in some library Book Details: 1) You can now have multiple book info windows. 2) If an item as an associated link then that link is made available using "(item link)" link text. 3) Book info windows on books in other libraries have no links UI: 1) the Manage Category editor presents a fourth column for links. OPF: 1) The OPF used for backing up (metadata.opf) contains the link map for the book. Currently this isn't used, but it should be used in recover_database. I didn't do anything with OPF3.
