Update a few documentation_link fields in release posts

Katrin Leinweber requested to merge update-workflows-for-target-branches-link into master

Why is this change being made?

I noticed a few outdated (due to renamings in gitlab-org/gitlab) documentation_links/anchors, using:

yq eval '.features.[].[].documentation_link' data/release_posts/*_*/*.yml | sort | uniq | rg 'docs.gitlab.com.+#'

Is it useful to update these few?

Generally, though: Should we consider to fill documentation_link fields the gitlab-org/gitlab/blob/…X.y.0…/doc…md#… with URLs specific to each minor release tag? That way, our release blog posts would always send customer to known, stably anchored docs section. 🤔
