Support custom link types between RTC SCM files and DNG artifacts

In RTC 6.0.6 the single builtin link type between SCM files and DNG artifacts is "Implements Requirement". This is not sufficient, we need additional link types like ‘satisfies', ‘allocates' and ‘verified by'. The possibility to define custom link types exists, but it is restricted to links between files (https://jazz.net/help-dev/clm/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.team.scm.doc%2Ftopics%2Ft_scm_create_link_types.html). This request is about supporting custom link types between SCM files and DNG artifacts.

    As part of the review process, we strive to be transparent about our intentions with each enhancement suggestion. The IBM Engineering team has carefully reviewed this idea, and based on our understanding, it does not fit our near-term plans. Although we are closing this request, it will be kept in IBM's ideas repository.  We value your feedback and thank you for allowing us to partner with you in developing our products.

    Moving to source control for proper consideration and triage. I have also heard customers ask for what requirements are met with this build? This is about change sets to requirements linkage which we have not done as we tend to link between RM and the work item "implements requirement" Does ASPICE require us to go deeper here as mentioned? @richard_watson FYI @mhalder FYI feel free to comment on this RFE
