No such link type exists, although the custom link creation
functionality is fairly powerful so I would imagine that you could
create such a link type locally without any requirement to modify the
Org-mode source code. If you do this it would be a fun thing to share
on the list and/or on worg.
As an interim solution the `sbe' function could be used inside of an
elisp link to easily execute code blocks in the same way it is used in
table formula.
