Multiple selection and bulk actions for links #364

Description
The app does not support multiple selection or bulk actions for links. This makes common tasks unnecessarily difficult when managing many links.

Expected behavior

  • Provide a way to select multiple links (e.g. selection mode)

  • Allow bulk actions on selected links, such as:

    • Move links to another profile
    • Attach tags to multiple links

Actual behavior

  • Only single-link actions are supported
  • Links must be edited one by one to change profiles or attach tags

Proposed solution

  • Add an explicit entry point for multi-select, such as a button in the title bar to enter selection mode

  • Alternatively, enhance the existing swipe interaction:

    • Since links are already swipeable left/right (edit/delete), introduce a threshold or indicator
    • If the swipe passes a certain point, enter selection mode instead of immediately dismissing the item
    • Selected items remain visible and can be acted on in bulk

Rationale
Current swipe actions immediately remove the item from view, which prevents using swipe gestures for selection. A dedicated selection mode or a clear swipe indicator would enable multi-select without conflicting with existing copy/edit/delete behavior.

Notes
Long-press is currently used for copying links, so multi-select would need a dedicated selection mode or alternative interaction.
