Link Out Read More setting on a link field

Allows content editors to select if a link field should provide the URL to make Read More link out (rather than link to a piece of content on-site, as is the default).

For instance, if you wrote short news summaries of material appearing elsewhere, where your unique content fits in the teaser, you can use this module to make the Read More link go directly to the original material on someone else's site.

Currently Link Out Read More only allows URLs from Link module-provided fields, but it would be possible to extend to allow, for example, a text field used for a URL as the Read More URL.

More limiting, it has only been tested with the Read More link provided by the Display Suite module, but expanding this also will be relatively easy, so just create an issue in the issue queue.
