sub link_layer_new {
    $blurb = 'Create a new link layer.';

    $help = <<'HELP';
This procedure creates a link layer monitoring the specified @file.


The new layer still needs to be added to the image as this is not
automatic. Add the new layer with the [method@Image.insert_layer]
method.


The arguments are kept as simple as necessary for the basic case. All
link attributes, however, can be modified with the appropriate
`gimp_link_layer_set_*()` procedures.

Retrieve the link information. This makes the layer behave like a link
layer after the link information has been discarded.

Since the source file will be monitored again, it may change the layer's render.

This procedure returns the mime type of the file which is being monitored by @layer.


Note that this will be the real mime type, corresponding to our format support,
as returned by the [class@Gimp.LoadProcedure] which actually performs the external
image file import.


This function may also return %NULL in case of error (for instance if the external
file doesn't exist anymore).
