No canonical links 3.5.0 and 3.5.1

We want the header of the current docs to point to the stable docs as canonical so search engines find those: <link rel="canonical" href="https://matplotlib.org/stable/index.html" />. This didn't happen for 3.5.0 and 3.5.1. Not sure if the fix is a doc-release python script or a fix to the doc build. Note that we have make_redirects_links.py that added the link to 3.4 and earlier, but I guess we don't want to run that whole hassle each time.

I didn't run that because we wanted to stop adding new things to the root that were just extra copies that were immediately 'deprecated'. If there's a way to just add the canonical URL, whether with the script or in the default doc build, that'd be better.
