Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

Google is introducing a new way for Google Jobs and others to indicate whether the URL that's associated with the job posting enables direct application for the job.

They write the following on their site:
"We define a direct apply experience in terms of the actions that are required from the user to apply to the job. This means that a user is offered a short and simple application process on your page without unnecessary intermediate steps. If the user has to click apply, complete an application form, sign in or log in more than once in the application journey, it means that you aren't offering a direct apply experience.

You likely offer a direct apply experience if you provide one of the following experiences:

The user completes the application process on your site.
Once arriving at your page from Google, the user doesn't have to click apply and provide user information more than once to complete the application process
The job posting includes instructions on how to apply (for example, the job posting lists the email address, phone number, or physical address where they can submit the application) or directly schedule an interview with an employer. These instructions must be for directly contacting the actual company hiring for the job, or their representative."

See the Notes of Google for directApply on their site: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/structured-data/job-posting#structured-data-type-definitions

Describe the solution you'd like

Integrate directApply into wpjobmanager. Probably as soon as the application URL is filled out a 1 could be passed to the structured data
