Bug #8854: Update URL for bug reports

The URL in error.c has recently been changed from
www.ruby-lang.org/bugreport.html to bugs.ruby-lang.org.

I am guessing(!) that the URL in test/ruby/test_rubyoptions.rb
should match the URL in error.c, see patch.

I couldn't test this, though.

Revert r42800 "* error.c: [DOC] Update bug tracker url by @ScotterC [Fixes GH-390]"

It should be fixed on www.ruby-lang.org side.

[stomar (Marcus Stollsteimer)]

The state is inconsistent now :), test/ruby/test_rubyoptions.rb has been adopted in r42802.

bugs.ruby-lang.org is referenced in multiple places. Why not switch to it completely and additionally keep a redirect from www.ruby-lang.org/bugreport.html for users of older revisions?

[zzak (zzak _)]

If bugreport.html only exists as a redirect then we should reference the actual bug tracker in documentation.

Unless the goal was to link to a page with details on how to report bugs. In this case it should be at this bugreport.html address

[stomar (Marcus Stollsteimer)]

bugreport.html does not exist (I do not know since when), and we set up a redirect to bugs.ruby-lang.org earlier today.

[stomar (Marcus Stollsteimer)]

@naruse (Yui NARUSE), @zzak (zzak _)

I propose to (again) change error.c to match r42802 (i.e. using 'bugs.ruby-lang.org').

Snapshots in http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.ruby-lang.org/bugreport.html
redirect to http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/projects/ruby/wiki/HowToReport before jekyll.

I would like to discuss this as a feature: #8931
