Rename "patch" option in "deno.json" to "links" #29468

Description

@bartlomieju

Deno supports using local npm packages via patch option in deno.json: https://deno.com/blog/v2.3#local-npm-packages

We received feedback that the naming is confusing and clashes with the notion of https://www.npmjs.com/package/patch-package that allows to float code patches on top of npm packages.

We should rename the option to "link" to match npm-link subcommand: https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v9/commands/npm-link
