Have a process to replace absolute links with relative

[moozooh]

This used to be a thing, apparently. TVA would go around automatically replacing absolute links to tasvideos.org resources with internal links. Presumably by scanning global edit history for mentions of tasvideos.org.

Feels like a good idea because people will surely make mistakes from time to time, and will not always notice them.

It simply did that after every edit by users if it contained a full link.

[moozooh]

Ah, so it would just immediately read every edit that was made and scan it for tasvideos.org links. I assume this behavior shouldn't be a problem to replicate?

Changing title to reflect what we need to do moving forward. There is no concept of "restore" here, new code, and new decisions
