Five external links in contributing.md (and the rendered site/contributing.html) currently return 200 only via redirect to canonical destinations:

GitHub deprecated help.github.com in favor of docs.github.com, Oracle deprecated technetwork, and the two HTTP URLs upgrade to HTTPS. The redirects work today but the canonical URLs are stable forever.

The change touches both contributing.md and site/contributing.html to keep the source and rendered files in sync, matching the convention from PR #679 (Fix a couple of typos in contributing.md).

Five external links in contributing.md (and the rendered site/contributing.html)
currently return 200 only via redirect:

  - help.github.com (deprecated) to docs.github.com (2 occurrences)
  - oracle.com/technetwork (deprecated) to oracle.com/java/technologies (1)
  - http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps to https://peps.python.org (1)
  - http://docs.scala-lang.org to https://docs.scala-lang.org (1)

Each is updated to its current canonical URL.
