[Feature] Check PyCafe is working with Vizro in CI

[maxschulz-COL]

Description

This PR does two things:

• refactor the PyCafe link creation file to be more flexible, ie splitting it into utils and a main script
• adding a new CI step that checks that the PyCafe links are actually working

Note: As before, due to security reasons we can only run this script from main, hence I can only see if it works once we merge this. As always, there will likely be a bug - so expect a few follow up pushes to main....
