repo actions (edit, source, issue) don't obey link-external-newwindow: true

[declann]

Bug description

Hi,

I really like the repo actions!

I have a draft website here where I use them:

https://models-on-a-plane.pages.dev/

In the footer there is a link to calculang on GitHub, which opens in a new window, due to link-external-newwindow: true.

The Edit this page, View Source and Report an issue links alongside them ("Repo actions links") don't follow the same behaviour.

Steps to reproduce

https://gitlab.com/declann/models-on-a-plane

_quarto.yml has:

  repo-url: https://gitlab.com/declann/models-on-a-plane
  issue-url: https://gitlab.com/declann/models-on-a-plane/-/issues
  repo-actions:
    - edit
    - source
    - issue

and also link-external-newwindow: true

Expected behavior

Repo actions links should obey link-external-newwindow i.e. open in a new window whenever set to true

Actual behavior

Repo actions links take the user away from website

Note that we elected not to support link-external-newwindow (as we intentionally don't decorate or have internal links gain this behavior). Instead, use repo-link-target and/or repo-link-rel to set corresponding attributes of repo links.
