Comment (by azaozz):

 Rereading the older comments, couple more suggestions:
 - Rename `wp_preload_links()` to `wp_preload_resources()`. It outputs link
 tags (same as `wp_resource_hints()`) but the actual functionality is to
 preload resources.
 - Open another ticket to update `wp_resource_hints()` as described in
 [#comment:3 comment 3] and fix/enhance the var names.

 Also seems better to keep these two separate.
