Check if a non-virtual robots.txt file exists and show the content #454
For high traffic sites, it would be better to have a non-virtual robots.txt file, to prevent PHP/WordPress handling this.
But if we create a robots.txt file it is easily missed that now WordPress is not handling it anymore.
Therefore I suggest adding a check to Site Health if there is non-virtual robots.txt file in the root directory.
Maybe we could also add the content of this file in the info area and/or in the tools section of the plugin.
This could be added as a tool, like the .htaccess viewer and therefore it is better suited for the plugin, than core. Although I hink it should be reported like the changed .htaccess in the info tab.
