class Roo::Link

Attributes

href[R]

FIXME: Roo::Link inherits from String. A link cell is_a?(Roo::Link). **It is

the only situation where a cells `value` is always a String**. Link
cells have a nifty `to_uri` method, but this method isn't easily
reached. (e.g. `sheet.sheet_for(nil).cells[[row,column]]).value.to_uri`;
`sheet.hyperlink(row, column)` doesn't use `to_uri`).

1. Add different types of links (String, Numeric, Date, DateTime, etc.)
2. Remove Roo::Link.
3. Don't inherit the string and pass the cell's value.

I don't know the historical reasons for the Roo::Link, but right now
it seems uneccessary. I'm in favor of keeping it just in case.

I'm also in favor of passing the cell's value to Roo::Link. The
cell.value's class would still be Roo::Link, but the value itself
would depend on what type of cell it is (Numeric, Date, etc.).
