I have no problem with the change, but I'd like to point out that link
may or may not be present in the list of stored links depending on
`org-attach-store-link-p'. So, checking stored links from the hook is
unreliable.

And remember that `org-attach-after-change-hook' may be called in other
scenarios; not necessarily when a new file is attached.

Instead, it might make more sense to pass the information about file
changes (if available) to the hook itself directly.
For example, we may obsolete `org-attach-after-change-hook' and introduce
`org-attach-after-change-functions'.  Then, we pass attachment dir +
list of changed files to that new abnormal hook.
WDYT?
