Fixes the failing Links CI job.

Two MaxMind marketing URLs now return 302, and lychee runs with max_redirects = 0 and does not accept 3xx status codes, so every page carrying one of them fails the build.

Old URL New URL
https://www.maxmind.com/en/geolite2/signup https://www.maxmind.com/en/create-account
https://www.maxmind.com/en/request-service-trial?service_geoip=1 https://www.maxmind.com/en/create-account?service_geoip=1

Each old URL returns a single 302 to the new URL. Each new URL returns 200 with no further redirect.

The destination is MaxMind's "Create an account" form, which covers both GeoIP trial requests and GeoLite sign-up, so the existing link text stays accurate. Only the URL strings changed.

Six locations updated across five files. No change to lychee.toml — an exclude would hide the stale URL instead of fixing it.

Testing

Clean rebuild plus the same lychee invocation CI uses:

rm -rf public .lycheecache
hugo --gc --minify -b /
lychee './public/**/*.html' --root-dir "$(pwd)/public"

Result: 12250 Total, 2164 Unique, 12139 OK, 0 Errors, 111 Excluded.

Prettier, cspell, check-prettierignore-rawhtml, check-internal-links, and format-rawhtml all pass on the changed files.

Linear: SCO-9251

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Two MaxMind marketing URLs now return 302:

  https://www.maxmind.com/en/geolite2/signup
    -> https://www.maxmind.com/en/create-account
  https://www.maxmind.com/en/request-service-trial?service_geoip=1
    -> https://www.maxmind.com/en/create-account?service_geoip=1

lychee runs with max_redirects = 0 and does not accept 3xx, so every
page carrying one of these links failed the Links CI job. Update all six
source locations to the redirect targets, which return 200.

The new page is the "Create an account" form, which covers both GeoIP
trial requests and GeoLite sign-up, so the link text stays accurate.
