📌 Description
When attempting to draw UML diagram with
draw_component()where external needs are referenced, the documentation build fails with a Python exception coming from theget_need_linkfunction.According to https://sphinx-needs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#sphinx_needs.data.NeedsSourceInfoType, external needs do not define the
docnamefield, which is used in the HTML link construction. This PR extends theget_need_linkwith the support for external needs.🚨 Impact Analysis
