The Sphinx linkcheck CI job has been intermittently failing on the two app.readthedocs.org/projects/pynwb/... URLs introduced in #2166 (docs/source/make_a_release.rst and docs/source/software_process.rst). The URLs themselves are valid and return 200 OK from a normal browser or local curl, but GitHub Actions runners frequently get throttled or blocked at readthedocs' CDN layer and receive 403s instead. Same failure mode as the existing scicrunch.org entry, so I added an analogous linkcheck_ignore pattern scoped to app\.readthedocs\.org/projects/pynwb/.*. I scoped it to the pynwb project specifically (rather than a broad app.readthedocs.org/* like the scicrunch entry uses) so that any future readthedocs URL elsewhere in the docs still gets caught by linkcheck if it ever points at a typo or a removed project.
