Subject: [PATCH] Add DEVONthink Pro to Org Mac Link

Add DEVONthink Pro Office (likely DEVONthink and DEVONthink Pro also,
but I do not have those variants to test) to Org Mac. Support for
collecting one (or several) DEVONthink items as Org link and support
for opening x-devonthink-item links from withing Org mode.
