The link checker has been failing on main since #192: 16 matplotlib.org links are 404.

The link checker has been failing on `main` since #192, because 16
matplotlib.org links are 404:

* Rows for examples that matplotlib removed and that we already list
  under their new name are dropped (`share_axis_lims_views`,
  `align_ylabels`, `pyplot_text`, `pyplot_three`, `demo_gridspec06`).
* `tick_label_right` and `tick_xlabel_top` were merged upstream into
  `ticks_top_right`, so they are now one row.
* `image_thumbnail_sgskip` and the two `simple_legend0*` demos are gone
  without a gallery replacement, so their rows (and the now-empty
  "Userdemo" section) are dropped.
* `multipage_pdf`, `svg_histogram_sgskip`, `svg_tooltip_sgskip` and
  `annotate_transform` no longer have generated thumbnails, so only the
  images are dropped; the links themselves still work.

All 898 remaining matplotlib.org links were verified to return 200.
