Removal of optional actions property from `DataLinksContextMenu` component

Actions were introduced as an optional property for the DataLinksContextMenu in October 2024 to support actions in the context menu for the table visualization. Actions were under a feature flag, so the impact is minimal. There’s no other way to use the property from other places that are using the DataLinksContextMenu component, so we expect the effect to be minimal.

If any, the impact would be that actions are not displayed in the context menu of the table visualization.

Migration/mitigation

Actions in the table visualization are supported using the Actions cell type. There is no migration in place, as we risk losing the cell content if we migrate to an Actions cell. If you consider that approach appropriate, however, you can manually change the cell type and gain access to actions, or add another column that supports actions.
