Add physical link status option #39

It would be great if we could show physical link status like with the DOWN red border of a node, but for a link. If the physical link was DOWN the link arrow would show as red border

Hey there! I'm not entirely positive this works for every case, but one way you could actually do this is by changing the links "Base Color" which you can find in the panel settings under "Link Options". If the query the link is looking for no longer exists, it will default to this color. Assuming all of your links have associated queries for their throughput, this would be one way of seeing if they lose the ability to retrieve that data. I'm not positive that this will work for returned null values (if you assume that also means a link is down), as I don't have a great way of testing this quite yet.
