Move the active Gecode website from Jekyll to Astro while keeping GitHub Pages as the origin and serving versioned documentation through Cloudflare Workers and private R2. The users archive gains browsing and search while preserving its historical URLs and fragment targets.
Pages deployment stays manual during the cutover. Worker deployments use separate staging, canary and production environments; production is restricted to reviewed main/release website refs. The documentation Worker handles directory redirects and PDF range validators, and historical publication refuses changes to completed versions.
Validation: staging Worker deployment and HTTP smoke checks passed in https://github.com/Gecode/gecode.github.io/actions/runs/33964652752. Local website quality checks, archive search/mobile checks and the classic rollback build passed. This PR runs the complete website checks from a clean GitHub checkout, including internal links and Lighthouse. Generated documentation is excluded from the Pages artifact.
The runbook records the documentation canary, production documentation soak, later Astro deployment and rollback sequence. Gecode/MPG release publication remains separate follow-up work.
