Comment (by dd32):

 Some options:

 a) Move it to a Rosetta page, such as `/about/update-php`
  - Pro: Available to all sites
  - Pro: Translatable as part of the 'WordPress.org' project.
  - Con: It's not really an about page, it's a support doc.

 b) Make `https://wordpress.org/support/update-php/` accept a `$locale`
 parameter to display alternate translations.
  - Pro: Should be easy to do, and we can redirect it elsewhere later if
 needed.
  - Con: Ran into a bug: #core46230
  - Con: It's not-great having random pages on `wordpress.org` being able
 to locale switch when we generally have translations on a separate domain
  - Con: Translations must be made within the forums translation project
 (can filter to strings in that file only though)

 c) Make `https://*.wordpress.org/support/update-php/`always work, by
 loading the English Help Hub (with translations) if no locale Help Hub
 exists.
  - Pro: Easy to do, "just works" (ish). We already do this with
 Plugins/Theme Directories
  - Con: All the links away from the page will remain linking to English
 sites even if they have translated titles.
  - Con: A little complicated when the locale does have a Help Hub site,
 but it's just code
  - Con: Translations must be made within the forums translation project
 (can filter to strings in that file only though)
