This has been introduced in commit 9ab3c2a80d3dfe83865c26162a5e69b9535685f8.
The commit message says
```
Support terminal hyperlinks in output
Some terminal emulators now allow printing hyperlinks through escape
sequences. See
https://gist.github.com/egmontkob/eb114294efbcd5adb1944c9f3cb5feda for
more information.
Hyperlink support cannot be gauged accurately. And while most terminals
just ignore the extra escape sequences, older versions of vte actually
print the URI along with some garbage. So, in this patch, the hyperlink
support is disabled by default and used only if the user explicitly
requests it. Once there is a way to query for feature support in
terminals, this can be intelligently enabled automatically.
```
Please let me know if anything stays unclear.
