Subject: [PATCH] [FIX] config(link_checker): ignore external anchors and
 downgrade external link errors to warnings

- Added skip_anchor_prefixes for http/https to skip external anchor validation
- Set external_level = "warn" to prevent build failures from external link issues
- Kept full validation for internal links
