 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.
