Replace a couple of broken links to gmane with links to other archives. See commit 54471fdcc3 ("README: replace gmane link with public-inbox", 2016-12-15) for prior art.

With this change there's still 4 references left in the code:
    $ git grep -E '(article|thread)\.gmane.org' -- |grep -v RelNotes|wc -l
    4
I couldn't find alternative links for those.

Perhaps someone else will have better luck with the other ones, which are:

This link seems to be alive.

There would be a corresponding git-scm.org manual page, no?

FYI, https://public-inbox.org/git/ has a "search" interface that lets you type "gmane:22047" to the box and click.
