[PATCH 0/8] Fix broken links

[Antonin Godard]

Use the linkcheck builder to fix broken links. The first two patches add
some exclusion patterns, and the remaining ones fix the links. Specific
replacements are split in separate patches.

[PATCH 1/8] conf.py: add linkcheck builder exclusions

[Antonin Godard]

The linkcheck builder can be used to scout for broken links. By looking at
the output of:

  grep -E -r --no-filename -o 'href="http.://[^/"]+' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr

from the HTML output directory, exclude links that are too frequent.
Also remove docs.yoctoproject.org links are those should already be
validated when building the documentation.

Because they are too frequent it's impossible they are broken? 
Considering you fix links that are in this list later in this series, I 
don't think this holds. At least provide a proper justification because 
"too frequent" doesn't make sense.

Cheers,
Quentin

I see your point. I did not want to hammer those websites, that is all. I'll
drop this patch I think. Maybe I could add this but commented out, in case
someone also wants to apply those exclusions.

[PATCH 2/8] conf.py: add extra links known to be broken

[Antonin Godard]

Those links are broken, yet our documentation still has references to them
we want to keep, namely in release notes. Make the linkcheck ignore them.

How about we replace them with archive links instead? e.g. from 
web.archive.org?

For patchwork, point at https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/patchwork/ 
instead maybe or https://github.com/getpatchwork/patchwork?
