Add ability to route the New Topic button to a custom URL

I really like the Customize new topic button text Theme Component, but I need it to route to a Wizard from the Custom Wizard Plugin 🧙.

I can use the native functionality of the Plugin to do the routing, but when I attempt to use this TC to change the text and icon I lose this. This is due to the way the TC hides the ‘OG’ button and replaces it with a new one.

I suggest a new setting in the TC which allows the addition of a Custom URL which, if present, directs the replacement button to the desired location. Here is a PR to that effect:

I’m using it at present on our site, and it seems to be working well:
