Linker::link() and Linker::linkKnown() functions are deprecated as of MediaWiki 1.28, and the new LinkRenderer is preferred instead.

Outcome
The Translate extension no longer uses deprecated methods Linker::link and Linker::linkKnown, allowing them to be removed later once all other uses elsewhere have been removed.
