In the plugin detail view, opening a plugin's homepage or repository link now first calls a logging helper before the link opens. Before, the link simply opened.\n\n- The record includes the `pluginId` and a `linkKind` of `documentation` or `repository`.\n\n- The GitHub link has no such call.\n\n- Separately, comparing plugin sources while loading plugins is now memoized per call. Memoized means a result is worked out once and reused instead of being recomputed.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe links behave as before. The change adds a record of which plugin links people open, and the memoizing avoids repeating the same comparison during loading.\n\n- Area: Telemetry\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
