docs CI: add KLU.jl and ForwardDiff.jl to linkcheck_ignore (fix master Documentation build)#874

Conversation
The Documentation build on master terminated with a [:linkcheck] error because GitHub rate-limited the CI runner's IP, returning HTTP 429 for https://github.com/JuliaSparse/KLU.jl and https://github.com/JuliaDiff/ForwardDiff.jl. Both URLs are valid (200 on a normal request); the 429 is transient GitHub anti-abuse throttling, not a broken link. This mirrors the existing convention in this file (e.g. FiniteDiff.jl / LinearSolve.jl added in SciML#842) of ignoring GitHub links that get throttled during linkcheck.

Problem
The
Documentationcheck onmaster(HEAD10df882) is failing. The build terminates with:The culprit is GitHub rate-limiting the CI runner's IP. linkcheck repeatedly received HTTP 429 for:
https://github.com/JuliaSparse/KLU.jlhttps://github.com/JuliaDiff/ForwardDiff.jlBoth URLs are valid (a normal request returns 200); the 429 is transient GitHub anti-abuse throttling, not a broken link.
Fix
Add the two throttled GitHub URLs to
linkcheck_ignoreindocs/make.jl. This mirrors the existing, maintainer-merged convention in this file (e.g.FiniteDiff.jl/LinearSolve.jladded in #842) of ignoring GitHub links that get throttled during linkcheck.Local verification
On Julia 1.12.6 (the "1" CI channel), parsed
docs/make.jland evaluated the literallinkcheck_ignorevector, then reproduced Documenter's ignore-matching (url == entryfor string entries):So linkcheck will skip exactly these two URLs and no longer hit the 429 that terminated the build. Runic reports no formatting changes.
