Provide permalink to the latest 2019-ncov situation report #874

Currently there is no way to link to the latest report, and user needs to know the date:

https://nextstrain.org/narratives/ncov/sit-rep/2020-01-30

Older, reports (which users may, for example, bookmark): https://nextstrain.org/narratives/ncov/sit-rep/2020-01-30 are not updated and provide no clues to users about the existence of newer revisions.

So users should always go through the main page.

I propose to discuss the need for:


 - adding a note on older pages about availability of latest revisions (maybe even with a short glance of changes, e.g. number of samples or new countries)

Simplest way for this to be done (& my recommendation) is upon copying the date-stamped narrative to the nextstrain/narratives repo we also create a copy (not symlink) with the filename "ncov_sit-rep.md" (or "ncov_sit-rep_latest.md").

Note that there's a redirect inside nextstrain.org directing https://nextstrain.org/narratives/ncov/sit-rep to the splash page which would have to be removed.
