Convert https://docs.cypress.io/ links to local

[MikeMcC399]

Issue

Source links stored in *.mdx files with the published domain name https://docs.cypress.io/... are not portable and may produce unexpected results when testing locally under localhost.

Secondly, Docusaurus does not report errors for links with external domains, meaning errors may go undetected. It only checks local links.

Missing target bookmarks

The following links resolve to a page, however the corresponding bookmark is missing from the page and so, when the link is used, the cursor is placed at the top of the page, leaving the reader to figure out what was intended:

• https://docs.cypress.io/faq/questions/cloud-faq#Is-everything-captured-and-replayed-in-Test-Replay resolves to https://docs.cypress.io/cloud/faq#Is-everything-captured-and-replayed-in-Test-Replay. The bookmark Is-everything-captured-and-replayed-in-Test-Replay is missing. This is logged as a separate issue Orphaned Test Replay limitations link #6054.
• https://docs.cypress.io/app/core-concepts/open-mode#Clicking-on-Commands. The bookmark Clicking-on-Commands is missing.

Change

• Remove the external part of URLs in *.mdx file links containing https://docs.cypress.io/...

• Change https://docs.cypress.io/app/core-concepts/open-mode#Clicking-on-Commands to the internal link /app/core-concepts/open-mode#Command-Log

Yah I noticed some of these slipping into a recent PR. We definitely want them local so the checks run. Might be good to look for on.cypress.io links also.

It's easy to forget to strip off the domain when copying links. I was guilty of adding one of these links for Docker, which is now corrected.

I did look at on.cypress.io and there is a lot of use of this, so it looked to me like it was strategy and not a mistake. I can take a look at converting these links in the new year, if that is what you would like to have done.

@MikeMcC399 If the result on the on.cypress.io link results in a link back to the docs itself, it should be a relative link. There may be some outside links that on.cypress.io reroutes to (like to cloud.cypress.io), those should be left.

Understood. That is what I was assuming.
