Subject: [PATCH V3] scripts/checkpatch.pl: check for non-permalinks to Zulip

Zulip links to https://rust-for-linux.zulipchat.com can break in
case of renaming the topic or channel if they are not message
links (which are permanent links).

If a non-permanent Zulip link is referenced then emit a warning
and direct the user to the Zulip documentation.

Permanent links are of the format:
https://.../#narrow/stream/x/topic/x/near/<numerical_id>

Suggested-by: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@...nel.org>
Link: https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/issues/1104
Signed-off-by: Siddharth Menon <simeddon@...il.com>
---
V1->V2:
Corrected the Github link to the right issue,
Fixed grammatical errors and Replaced the link to reference 
Documentation to one that is easier to understand.
V2->V3:
Updated the URL to link directly to the section in the documentation 
with instructions on how to create perma-links.
