[Why] Currently the creation of link encoder objects is tightly coupled to the creation of link objects. Decoupling link encoder object creation is a preliminary step in the process of allowing link encoders to be dynamically assigned to links. [How] Add "minimal" link encoder objects which are not associated with any link until required.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
