docs: fix some broken links (#22167)

Browse Source 
This fixes broken links that where reported via:

https://validator.w3.org/checklink?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fgeth.ethereum.org%2Fdocs%2F&hide_type=all&recursive=on&depth=10&check=Check

It also moves the 'getting started' pages from /getting-started/... to
/docs/getting-started/... In order to not break any old links, redirects
from the old location have been added.
