Description

Now that the HTML DAG renders a mermaid diagram (#4316), we can extend it in some interesting ways:

Add hyperlinks to nodes

Process links to source code, operator links to operator docs, input files link to URL source. Adding the link is trivial. Determining what the link should be is not 😄

Anyway, could be a fun frontend project for someone who wants to try 😄
