A git symlink would allow us to keep the file at the top level (for easy
location while browsing the repository) as well as under docs (for easy
incorporation into the doc build recipes).  I don't know if tooling
would require the original in one place (forcing the other to be the
link), or if you can do it in either direction.

A textual link in an actual file is slightly different than a git
symlink, but yes, that would probably also work (even if it requires
chasing through one more layer of files).
