org-link-expand-abbrev: Do not evaluate arbitrary unsafe Elisp code
    
    * lisp/org/ol.el (org-link-expand-abbrev): Refuse expanding %(...)
    link abbrevs that specify unsafe function.  Instead, display a
    warning, and do not expand the abbrev.  Clear all the text properties
    from the returned link, to avoid any potential vulnerabilities caused
    by properties that may contain arbitrary Elisp.
