exit_nist.cgi deprecated

[guyer]

The exit_nist.cgi script has been deprecated for some reason, but is still required... for some reason...

Change redirects to Andrew's new script at http://www.ctcms.nist.gov/cgi-bin/redirect.py

We used to strip the redirect from the LaTeX-generated documentation, but no longer do with Sphinx. We should figure out if we can, since the external links are completely broken in the PDF now and the redirect warning is even dumber than it is on the web page.

Pushed updated pages with new redirect to CTCMS.

Still need to see if there's a way to automate this and exclude these silly redirects from the PDF. The [http://sphinx-doc.org/builders.html#sphinx.builders.linkcheck.CheckExternalLinksBuilder linkcheck] builder looks like it might give some insight into recognizing external links and rewriting them.
