Subject: [ruby-core:122286] [Ruby Misc#21367] Remove link to ruby-doc.org from www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/

Issue #21367 has been updated by st0012 (Stan Lo).


Checking with web.archive.org, a few links were already 404 many years ago (e.g. 2016), so we can simply remove them IMO.
For those that are still indexed in the last 10 years, I think some of them can be replaced with a link to their web archive pages, with updated texts like "Original text (web archive)". WDYT?

Misc #21367: Remove link to ruby-doc.org from www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/

The ruby-doc.org domain no longer seems resolvable.
```
$ curl -I  http://ruby-doc.org
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: ruby-doc.org
```

The owner of the domain mentioned he wanted to sell it:
https://ruby.social/@jamesbritt@mastodon.social/114375521600278606

This is probably a good time to remove it from https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/.
This could also improve SEO for the official documentation.
