Describe your changes

A GSC/crawl audit surfaced ~190 URLs returning 404 or redirecting into a 404. This adds 52 changes to vercel.json:

  • Fixes 3 existing redirects that were landing on a live-but-wrong page: two generic :slug wildcards were shadowing more specific renamed-API destinations (alter_materialized_view, chunk_compression_settings/hypertable_compression_settings → columnstore renames), and security/azure-privatelink was being routed into the AWS section instead of Azure's.
  • Adds ~35 new redirects for renamed/moved pages (deprecated compression→columnstore API names, region-folder casing typos, tutorial/migrate renames, etc.), split across the legacy (/latest) and internal-move blocks per this repo's convention.

Left as 404 intentionally (not in scope for this PR):

  • URLs under /reference/pgai/*, /reference/pgvectorscale/*, /reference/tiger-cloud-rest/typescript/*, and /keywords/* — none of this content exists in this repo.
  • metrics-logging/insights, services/i-o-boost, services/replicas, tiger-cloud-azure/security/vpc, informational-views/data_nodes — no clean live equivalent found.
  • A handful of malformed/garbage crawl artifacts (/about/latest/undefined, space-containing URLs).
