@ewjoachim has posted the above blog post by Google in the Django Discord
which details that Google is depreciating the sitemap ping, and will
remove it in 6 months time (end of January 2024).
This ping endpoint is used by `contrib.django.sitemaps` (`ping_google()`
in `__init__.py`) and also has an associated management command which will
require depreciation if Google are going to disable the endpoint.
