What does this MR do and why?

Rich text editor currently does not allow CMD+Clicking a link to open in new tab, but opens a bubble menu allowing link edits. This MR makes it so Clicking the link opens the bubble menu but CMD+Clicking opens the link in a new tab.

How to set up and validate locally

  1. Go to any Merge Request page and on a content editor box, switch to rich text editing.
  2. Press the hyperlink icon from the menu and create a new link, after creation cmd/ctrl+click it to open the link in a new tab.
