link.type only can make effect in global

[anewcoder1992]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I have test link.type can only make effect when set in the config. You can not specified one type for a link.

  const myConfig = {
    node: {
      size: 600,
      fontSize:18,
      fontWeight:'bold',
      labelProperty:'name',
    },
    link: {
      type:'CURVE_SMOOTH',
      labelProperty: 'leadtime',
    }
  }

Describe the solution you'd like
when i set one link

    links: [
      { source: 'b1', target: 'c2', leadtime: '24 days' , type:'CURVE_SMOOTH',},
      { source: 'c1', target: 'd1', leadtime: 'check',type:'STRAIGHT' },
    ]

it did not not make effect.
i think the (link.type) should as same as( node.svg)that can specified one svg for a node.

Hello, @MoonSeeing thanks for reporting it. This library is slowly moving into having all its properties to take local and global effect. We can see for past requests such as:

• node.renderLabel in Make node.renderLabel available at node level #192
• link.color in custom color on links #71
• node.strokeColor in Allow nodes to override strokeColor #122

So I recognize that this request makes sense and it's not actually much work to implement, feel free to submit a Pull Request. If I may add, you can even submit the PR next week for Hacktoberfest 😉
