wget2 | Force directories for every HTML URL without file extension (#628)

[Mitar (@mitar)]

Mitar created an issue: https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/wget2/-/issues/628



I was looking into wget/wget2 for archiving a website to GitHub Pages, but the 
issue is that wget breaks URLS and so external links to my website would break 
if I just mirror the website and replace it with GitHub pages.

I think I want an alternative to `--adjust-extension` which would make all 
downloaded HTML URLs without file extension instead into its own directory as 
`index.html`. I would want that `/foo/bar` URL gets downloaded into 
`/foo/bar/index.html`, so that when you then open `/foo/bar` in a browser, 
standard HTTP servers (and GitHub Pages) redirect to `/foo/bar/index.html`.

So with this there would be an extra redirect to new location, but all existing 
inbound links from other sites to archived website would continue to work.
