Not sure if we need to change this. The original URL is not a gitbook URL

Personally I'm thinking this just causes confusion if we change from pointing to the repo to somewhere else. I was under the impression the link would take me to the Mattermost docs site, but it's just a redirect to the repo's readme. As mentioned in the spreadsheet linked in the PR description:
It seems that it "doesn't matter" if we make this change or not, so I propose we keep it how it is to avoid confusion

Same for the following PRs:
Is the plan to relocate some of the information in the readmes to another location?

Long term, yes. Mattermost-supported plugin README content will likely move back to the product docs site, though a timeline for that work hasn't been set yet. However, that's not driving this change primarily.
These changes were applied to bring Mattermost-supported content in line with our Handbook policy of linking to documentation via permalinks managed by Marketing.
I applied these changes to the in-product text visible via the System Console.
If this change will introduce confusion in the short term, I'm 0/5 on keeping these proposed changes and open to reverting to the GitHub links instead. We could decide to address links if/when we decide to move content in the future.

Thanks for the explanation @cwarnermm 👍
Yes I think I would prefer this for now. @hanzei Thoughts on this?

I'm 1/5 that we don't need perma links here. We can always release a new plugin version if we really want to change a link. I don't think it's worth the confusion.

Sounds good. Thank you both for your feedback and input. I'll close this PR and the other PRs introducing the same updates, as @mickmister listed above.
