ElvUI WindTools

Describe the bug

The chat filter function that adds a translation helper (?) to english words is applying to words within MDT links and breaking them. I think the filter function should not apply to chat links of any kind.

If you find more evidence that WindTools cause the problem, please re-open this issue.

I will take a look of this after work.

the translation only works for item link, mdt link should not be affected, and I checked mdt routes with english name in game, everything works great.
