Allow developers to customize the section headers for addition links (icons, text, etc).

This would make the following possible without patches:

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DiscussionThreading

and allow workarounds for:

http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6467
http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=522
http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3043

Would only require two new hooks into linker.php (see full details in diff file attached):

in public function editSectionLinkForOther add:
    wfRunHooks( 'editSectionLinkForOther', array( &$this, $title, $section , $url, &$result)  );

in public function editSectionLink add:
    wfRunHooks( 'editSectionLink', array( &$this, $nt, $section, $hint='', $url , &$result) );
