Update text link styles in Fleet UI #35328

Description

@mike-j-thomas

Goal

User story
As a Fleet user,
I want text-based links in the Fleet UI to follow clear, consistent visual and interaction rules based on their purpose,
so that I can easily understand what is clickable, what action it will perform, and navigate the product with confidence and minimal visual distraction.
