Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I often need to check the source code of components to discover how they work, to fix bugs etc. Right now I have to manually open GitHub and navigate to the component.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add a direct link to the component implementation in ionic-team/ionic-framework (folder or tsx), maybe at the end of the page next to the Contribute > button.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Navigating manually each time.

Research direction

Start by locating the API documentation page template and the existing Contribute > button, then determine how each component maps to its implementation folder or TSX file in ionic-team/ionic-framework. Done means the relevant API pages expose a direct implementation link alongside the contribution control and the documentation build remains valid.
