Add `index.md` to doc links that don't have it - 3

If you are a community contributor:

  1. To work on an issue, type @gl-docsteam I would like to work on this issue. in a comment. A technical writer will assign the issue to you. Do not work on the issue before it is assigned to you. If someone has already chosen the issue, pick another or view docs in the docs directory and open a merge request for any page you feel can be improved.
  2. Create a merge request for the issue. If this is for a Hackathon, do not create the merge request before the Hackathon has started or it will not be counted towards the Hackathon. If you were not assigned the issue, do not create a merge request. It will not be accepted.
  3. Copy the link to this issue and add it to the merge request's description, which will link the merge request and the issue together.
  4. After your merge request is accepted and merged, close this issue.

If you notice things you'd like to fix that are not part of the issue, open separate merge requests for those issues.

We're sorry for all the rules but we want everyone to have a good experience, and it can be hard when we get an influx of contributions.

Thank you again for contributing to the GitLab documentation!

Identified documentation issue

As detailed in &8484, there are many links that are missing the index.md, which can break the links when viewed in /help or when editing locally. To fix these links, we simply need to add the index.md to the link path. For example:

  • [issues](../user/project/issues/) -> [issues](../user/project/issues/index.md)
  • [allows failure](../../ci/yaml/#allow_failure) -> [allows failure](../../ci/yaml/index.md#allow_failure)
