[audit/critical] Add automated link-rot protection (CI) #3

Description

@Displacedtex

Priority: Critical

Problem

README has ~100 external links, heavily biased toward Medium.com (/@user/... patterns are especially fragile) and data-flair.training (appears 7+ times). Commit history shows reactive "broken link" fixes — there is no automated check.

Recommendation

Add a GitHub Action that runs a markdown link checker on every PR plus on a weekly schedule. Options:

Acceptance criteria

  • .github/workflows/link-check.yml (or similar) runs on PRs and on schedule: (e.g. weekly).
  • Failing links fail the workflow, surfacing regressions.
  • Optional: auto-open an issue when a scheduled scan fails.

Part of the repo audit backlog.
