pyvista: Open an Issue when linkcheck fails

Describe the feature you would like to be added.

Problem Recently, we have added linkcheck to run periodically, every week. However, someone has to go and look for the failed build and do the fixes. This could go unseen or unnoticed.

Proposed solution Automatically open an Issue when the linkcheck fails. So we can better monitor it and fix it. We can also assign to some of the maintainers

I will be happy to work on that

Hi @banesullivan I think it can be something like the PR I linked

@laysauchoa, I think this is a great idea. Would you be willing to take this on?

I believe there are GitHub Actions that can open an issue like this easily.

I would set up the CI on a cronjob which:

runs link check and captures output as text
if fails, opens the issue with error text as body of the issue

First of all, we don’t know the correct URL automatically 😅

I’m sorry. I misunderstood your suggestion (I was imagining something like dependabot.). In this case, I also think Issue would be better.
