Further improve/consolidate Link api
------------------------------------

                 Key: MAGNOLIA-2872
                 URL: http://jira.magnolia-cms.com/browse/MAGNOLIA-2872
             Project: Magnolia
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core
            Reporter: Grégory Joseph
            Assignee: Philipp Bärfuss
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 4.2


There are some places in the Link api that could be improved; the methods 
exposed by LinkFactory are inconsistent, for instance. (some of the methods 
take String parameters and fetch a node in the repository from that, others 
take a node - as a consequence, client code (or LinkFactory itself) gets messy 
- on some occasions,  it has to use both methods, and exception handling gets 
messy, too. The fetching of nodes should be entirely handled by either 
LinkFactory itself - or the client code.
One example is at {{createLink(String uuid, String repository, String 
fallbackHandle, String nodeDataName, String extension, String anchor, String 
parameters) }}

There are other little quirks of the same sort that could use a little 
review/cleanup/rename.

Additionally, we should remove/review usage of deprecated classes 
({{info.magnolia.cms.link.*}}) in our own code!
