Ok, I'm now convinced about making www.sugarlabs.org/* and
sugarlabs.org/* point at the same stuff.  Me and Ivan are already
coordinating to make this happen.

I'm not sure we should also redirect the /go/ namespace to
wiki.sugarlabs.org.  We can just let it work transparently
with all these domains, to reduce the number of indirections
for existing links.
