Description

Feature idea: Add an option to `.doclets.yml` that enables automatically building documentation for all pull requests. That way it's always easy to check whether documentation changes made by PRs are valid and complete. There could be an extra section in the project's page on doclets.io listing recent PRs.

Cherry on top: Integrate with GitHub status API to display build success/failure and link to output.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing .doclets.yml configuration and how documentation builds are exposed through doclets.io. Then investigate the GitHub status API and define the scope for pull-request builds, recent-PR display, build results, and output links; the feature is done when those requirements and their validation path are specified.
