Convert the Linea 0x input into a Solana-account receipt

Linea uses EVM account addresses and ETH for source gas. Solana uses Solana accounts, transaction signatures, and SOL for destination activity. A 0x address is not a valid substitute for the Solana receiving address shown by the route. WETH uses WETH wrapped token on the source; LINK uses LINK contract token on Solana.
