Create a redirect url for the Discord invite link

[tim-schilling]

I think there's benefit in creating a djangoproject.com/discord or djangoproject.com/chat to redirect to ​https://discord.gg/xcRH6mN4fa.

That code is obfuscated and is weird for other communities/people to share. When individuals share links to the Django discord, it's not possible to inspect that it's actually the correct server. I think sharing a djangoproject.com link, even if it redirects, is more trustworthy.

There's also the scenario in which something happens Discord's end and the code were invalidated, we'd have a number of places to change. It might be worth to start that process sooner rather than later.

I think this is in the wrong spot.

Alright, maybe this is the right spot (Django ticket).

Pending forum discussion first.

The forum post got 3 positive votes by my count, so I think it's reasonable to move forward with this.

I'm going to go with chat.djangoproject.com for now, we can always change or add another option later down the line if needed.

There's a few moving parts to make it happen in our DNS configuration, but I'm working on it and I'll report here once things are working.
