Description

Description of the new feature/enhancement

Have Validation-Domain label applied to PRs when the InstallerUrl contains "web.archive.org". This is an archival website, so it's rare for developers to use as primary hosting, but common when trying to circumvent the developer's intentions. This label would help moderators to be aware of this and work to mitigate.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

This would utilize the same mechanism as currently applies `Validation-Domain to PRs with other rehosting domains in the InstallerUrl.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing PR validation that applies the Validation-Domain label for other rehosting domains in InstallerUrl. Extend the same mechanism to recognize web.archive.org, then verify that a PR containing this domain receives the label and that existing domain checks still behave as before.
