Revert "Open related issues in a new tab"

Annabel Dunstone Gray requested to merge revert-87124cef into master

What does this MR do and why?

Reverts Open related issues in a new tab (!101480 - merged)

According to our docs:

A link can use target="_blank" if it's intentional that the user cannot use the browser's back function to return to the reference, and that it's clear to the user they are leaving the current experience.

In this case, it's not clear to the user that they will be leaving the current experience. There also isn't much benefit to opening related items in new tabs- users are no longer able to go back to their current view, and they'll likely end up with a lot more open tabs in necessary.

Screenshots or screen recordings

Screenshots are required for UI changes, and strongly recommended for all other merge requests.

How to set up and validate locally

Numbered steps to set up and validate the change are strongly suggested.
