      Summary: Enhance the cloning functionality to support custom link names, ensuring that issue links are created even when the default link name "Cloners" is modified.

      Current Behavior: When the link name "Cloners" is edited (e.g., changed to "Clone"), the cloning process does not generate a link between the original and cloned issues, although the cloned issue itself is created successfully.

      Suggestion: Modify the cloning functionality to accommodate changes in the default link name "Cloners," so that the link between the original and cloned issues is maintained regardless of any modifications to the link name.

      Rationale:

      • Users may wish to customize link names for clarity or to match organizational terminology.
      • Ensuring consistent functionality regardless of link name changes will enhance user flexibility and prevent potential disruptions in workflow.
      • Supporting this feature could improve integration with third-party apps like Zephyr Scale - Test Management for Jira, which may rely on issue links.

      Workaround: Rename the link type back to "Cloners" to restore the default behavior of creating links during the cloning process.
