Description
Overview of the Feature Request
When the user chooses PURL from the Related Publication Identifier Type dropdown, the OpenAIRE/oai_datacite export should use the value the user enters as the related identifier, as the DataCite/Datacite export already does. Currently, the OpenAIRE/oai_datacite export uses "https://purl.org" as the related identifier instead of the value the user entered.
This issue is part of a larger effort to align both metadata exports, described in https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/11916 and https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/12281.
What kind of user is the feature intended for?
API User, Superuser, and Sysadmin
What inspired the request?
This is part of a larger effort to align the OpenAIRE/oai_datacite and DataCite/Datacite metadata exports. There is more context at https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/11916 and https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/12281.
What existing behavior do you want changed?
Currently, the DataCite/Datacite export uses the value the user entered as the related identifier when the user chooses PURL from the Related Publication Identifier Type dropdown. For example:
<relatedIdentifier
relationType="IsCitedBy"
relatedIdentifierType="PURL">12345
</relatedIdentifier>
The OpenAIRE/oai_datacite export uses "https://purl.org" as the related identifier instead of the value the user entered. For example:
<relatedIdentifier
relationType="IsCitedBy"
relatedIdentifierType="PURL">https://purl.org
</relatedIdentifier>
The OpenAIRE/oai_datacite export should be changed to use the value the user entered as the related identifier when the user chooses PURL as the identifier type, matching the behavior of the DataCite/Datacite export.

Research direction
Start by comparing the OpenAIRE/oai_datacite and DataCite/Datacite export paths, focusing on how a PURL related identifier is produced and where the user-entered value is available. Confirm the export output uses that entered value rather than "https://purl.org", while preserving the relation type and PURL identifier type shown in the issue.
