Diff wrt to #257

As can be seen from the diff above, I needed to change the definition of the PODIO_DECLARE_LINK macro, and it now only deals with the registration to the CollectionBufferFactory and there is a separate macro to deal with the registration to the SIOBlockFactory. Otherwise, it becomes hard to only build the "central" part of a datamodel without any dependencies on an I/O backend. This could be lifted to #257 if we wanted.

@tmadlener tmadlener force-pushed the links-in-yaml branch 2 times, most recently from 04fa8bb to 59cfd7b Compare September 30, 2024 11:13
Otherwise things start to break in cases where users explicitly use
these types at the moment.

From a technical point of view this is ready. I can successfully build the complete stack with this and key4hep/EDM4hep#373 without any changes to the stack, apart from a few cases where the deprecated Association headers were still in use and which should be fixed soon.
