I'm not sure hard-coding attachment links in exporters in the best way
forward. For example, exporters in the wild may not cope with them
before a long time, if ever. There is some code duplication, too.

If attachments links are similar to file links from an export point of
view, then I suggest to add a phase in ox.el to expand the former into
the latter, before even using export back-ends. This way, there is no
change required in the exporters, shipped in or not.
