  2. [CI] link checker: update action version + ignore 429 

    Especially gnu.org is giving a lot of 429 statuses (too many requests), seems like it doesn't like GitHub spam. There doesn't seem to be much one can do about this, so let's just ignore this code (add it to the accept list) and hope people run the link checker on the GNU links locally every now and then. In a way, accepting this code is not wrong, because a benevolent server will not give 429 if the URL is invalid (it will give 404 instead), so in a way 429 may signify that the URL is valid (it just won't load for you right now).

  4. [CI] remove 10 allowed failing links 

    Handling all broken links does not seem unfeasible, especially when handling 429 statuses. Lychee has some other options like excluding certain domains, that we could use in exceptional cases.
