Keep redirects and update times current#

Redirects record URL history; update checkpoints record body changes. After moving pages or changing slugs, review both:

brief redirects sync --dry-run
brief redirects sync
brief updates sync --dry-run
brief updates sync
brief check

A move that rewrites links changes the bodies of the referring pages. Synchronize those pages' update checkpoints as well as redirect history, then commit the metadata with the content changes.
