[Scons-dev] Wiki migration from Bitbucket to GitHub

[Andrew Featherstone]

I think I can live with dead links on the internet. If a site does want to
keep their links working, then they can update them to point at GitHub. I'd
prefer this to making sure that a blog post from 2010 still points to
content, with no idea that the newer content exists.
