Description
# Summary
The templating system for the Links could be improved to support:
- keys containing special characters
- usage of functions
The templating system for the links would work the same way as the Expression templating system for the Workflows (https://argoproj.github.io/argo-workflows/variables/#expression).
# Use Cases
Usage of keys containing special characters would be useful if I want to use a workflow metadata like `workflows.argoproj.io/workflow-template` in a Link.
The usage of functions would allow the modification of the fields. For example, I would like to add a few seconds to `status.finishedAtEpoch` to take into account the Promtail scrap delay. This could also be useful for formatting, trimming, etc.
