Description
Currently, Confluent supports schema linking, whilst this is possible with RedPanda using topic replication it would be good to also support schema linking to and from other targets like Confluent.
This would help in the following situations:
- Migration between RedPanda and Confluent
- Syncing Schemas between partners who use different Schema Registries.

Ideally, this should be considered along with the ability to have different schema contexts so that you can sync from or into a different context. #8553

Research direction
No implementation files or tests are identified. Start with the linked Confluent schema-linking documentation and issue #8553, then determine how Redpanda could link schemas to and from other registries and support different schema contexts. Done should include an agreed design and working support for the migration and cross-registry synchronization cases described here.
