…nk to context menu When the user right-clicks on a hyperlink in the Markdown view, the context menu now includes a 'Copy Link' item at the top (followed by a separator) that copies only the raw URL to the clipboard — not the display text. - Add _contextMenuLinkUrl field and FindLinkUrlAt helper (Mouse.cs) - ShowContextMenu detects link under right-click position and rebuilds context menu accordingly (Selection.cs) - CreateContextMenu prepends 'Copy Link' + separator when a link URL is detected (Selection.cs) Keyboard context menu (Shift+F10) is unaffected.

Fixes #5284
Summary
Right-clicking on a hyperlink in the Markdown view now adds a Copy Link item to the context menu. Clicking it copies only the raw URL to the clipboard — not the display text.
Menu layout when right-clicking a link:
Right-clicking on a non-link area continues to show only Select All and Copy. The keyboard context menu (Shift+F10) is also unaffected.
