Description
Fixes #2010 by proposing a CI that checks if a client or server is obsolete (archived/unreachable on their website) and optionally also fetches a DOAP based metadata definition to allow for maintainer-based updates to the ecosystem without needing to worry as much about updating things in our repo. Updating on their side should be enough.
This still however does use PRs so a human has to review things before they land. This is mainly to avoid T&S related issues.
There is also a permanent Issue which gets used to track technical issues with those files (unreachable, invalid etc. stuff you want to be notified about even if there is no change PR).
There is also a second helper that does hint at this in PRs and validates the DOAP file if provided.
This basically leans on what XMPP is doing in https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0453.html
