32723	Add a GitHub action to run the Sphinx linkcheck builder.	Nick Pope	Sarah Abderemane	"This is a follow on step from #32720. (Migrated to this new ticket as [https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/32720#comment:1 suggested] by Mariusz.)

Add a scheduled GitHub action to check for broken links, or redirects that could be simplified, on a weekly/monthly basis.

This would need to wait for [https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/6525​ sphinx-doc/sphinx#6525] to be addressed so that we can treat desired redirections as ""working"" links instead of ""redirected"", e.g. `https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/` → `https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/`.

The linkcheck builder generates `docs/_build/linkcheck/output.{json,txt}` which could be filtered and attached as an artifact from the GitHub action to make it easier to provide a report on what needs fixing."
