Add UI counter support to capture metrics of link clicks on Links panels.

For each click event we should only need to add something like the follow code, where LINK_TYPE is either dashboardLink or externalLink.

usageCollection?.reportUiCounter(APP_ID, METRIC_TYPE.CLICK, `${LINK_TYPE}:click`);

See the UI Counters section in the usage_collection README.

[Dashboard Navigation] Add Links telemetry (elastic#171877)
31a8b7b 
Closes elastic#164305

## Summary

This PR adds two `uiCounters` to keep track of when something is clicked
in the new Links panel:

1. `dashboardLink:click` - counts when a dashboard link is clicked
2. `externalLink:click` - counts when an external link is clicked

These counters can be tracked via the `kibana-ui-counters` data view on
the telemetry clusters, like so:

Note that this **only** applies if the `onClick` method is called; if
the user, for example, right clicks on the link and selects "Open in new
tab" instead, this "click" will not be tracked. To my knowledge, there
is no way to track these types of clicks.
