 I'm facing an issue retrieving the link to the sitemap generated by a
 third-party plugin (in my case it's Yoast SEO). The plugin generates a
 sitemap on a separate route and adds a 301 redirect rule from the URL /wp-
 sitemap.xml to its own route (at the time of writing it's
 /sitemap_index.xml). However, there is no native way (including within the
 plugin itself) to obtain the correct link to the sitemap with a status
 code of 200. Of course, one can continue to access /wp-sitemap.xml, but in
 reality, this page responds with a 301 code, which could adversely affect
 SEO.

 Suggestion: Add a filter hook, such as 'hook_example_sitemap_url,' which
 would be applied to the return function of get_sitemap_url()
