Website split article page routes (#25149)

Closes: #23904

Changes:
- Replaced the regex routes that handle articles and article category
pages to have a separate route for each category
- Updated the build-static-content script to transform periods in
article filenames into dashes
- Added redirects for articles that have a changed URL
