    /**
     * Pre-render callback: Collects child links into a single array.
     *
     * This method can be added as a pre_render callback for a renderable array,
     * usually one which will be themed by links.html.twig. It iterates through
     * all unrendered children of the element, collects any #links properties it
     * finds, merges them into the parent element's #links array, and prevents
     * those children from being rendered separately.
     *
     * The purpose of this is to allow links to be logically grouped into related
     * categories, so that each child group can be rendered as its own list of
     * links if drupal_render() is called on it, but calling drupal_render() on
     * the parent element will still produce a single list containing all the
     * remaining links, regardless of what group they were in.
     *
     * A typical example comes from node links, which are stored in a renderable
     * array similar to this:
     * @code
     * $build['links'] = array(
     *   '#theme' => 'links__node',
     *   '#pre_render' => array(Link::class, 'preRenderLinks'),
     *   'comment' => array(
     *     '#theme' => 'links__node__comment',
     *     '#links' => array(
     *       // An array of links associated with node comments, suitable for
     *       // passing in to links.html.twig.
     *     ),
     *   ),
     *   'statistics' => array(
     *     '#theme' => 'links__node__statistics',
     *     '#links' => array(
     *       // An array of links associated with node statistics, suitable for
     *       // passing in to links.html.twig.
     *     ),
     *   ),
     *   'translation' => array(
     *     '#theme' => 'links__node__translation',
     *     '#links' => array(
     *       // An array of links associated with node translation, suitable for
     *       // passing in to links.html.twig.
     *     ),
     *   ),
     * );
     * @endcode
     *
     * In this example, the links are grouped by functionality, which can be
     * helpful to themers who want to display certain kinds of links
     * independently. For example, adding this code to node.html.twig will result
     * in the comment links being rendered as a single list:
     * @code
     * {{ content.links.comment }}
     * @endcode
     *
     * (where a node's content has been transformed into $content before handing
     * control to the node.html.twig template).
     *
     * The preRenderLinks method defined here allows the above flexibility, but
     * also allows the following code to be used to render all remaining links
     * into a single list, regardless of their group:
     * @code
     * {{ content.links }}
     * @endcode
     *
     * In the above example, this will result in the statistics and translation
     * links being rendered together in a single list (but not the comment links,
     * which were rendered previously on their own).
     *
     * Because of the way this method works, the individual properties of each
     * group (for example, a group-specific #theme property such as
     * 'links__node__comment' in the example above, or any other property such as
     * #attributes or #pre_render that is attached to it) are only used when that
     * group is rendered on its own. When the group is rendered together with
     * other children, these child-specific properties are ignored, and only the
     * overall properties of the parent are used.
     *
     * @param array $element
     *   Render array containing child links to group.
     *
     * @return array
     *   Render array containing child links grouped into a single array.
