http.headers.Link - The `version_added` data is for HTTP 103 Early Hints, not for the `Link` header with `rel="preload"` etc. on the same response

[Func86]

What type of issue is this?

Incorrect support data (example: BrowserX says "86" but support was added in "40")

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

The version_added data for the Link header is only about the HTTP 103 Early Hints support added in 2022+, without mentioning the long-lived support of the Link header using rel=preload etc. on the same response.

What browsers does this problem apply to, if applicable?

No response

What did you expect to see?

Add data for the long-lived support of the Link header, basically the same as rel="preload" and rel="preconnect".

Or if this data arrangement is by design, at least the doc page should be updated to say 'refer to rel="preload" and rel="preconnect" for the respective compatibility data' or something.

Did you test this? If so, how?
