-----------------------------
Summary: Update Apache downloads link due to INFRA structural changes
Key: FLINK-16436
URL:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-16436 Project: Flink
Issue Type: Task
Components: Project Website
Affects Versions: 1.11.0
Reporter: Yu Li
Fix For: 1.11.0
As titled, the INFRA team has sent an email to PMC member of apache projects with title of "[NOTICE] Structural changes to Apache downloads", to remind projects to change links to Apache downloads from `www.apache.org/dist/` to `
https://downloads.apache.org/`. Below is a quote of the main content of the email:

As of March 2020, we are deprecating www.apache.org/dist/ in favor of
https://downloads.apache.org/ for backup downloads as well as signature
and checksum verification. The primary driver has been splitting up web
site visits and downloads to gain better control and offer a better
service for both downloads and web site visits.
As stated, this does not impact end-users, and should have a minimal
impact on projects, as our download selectors as well as visits to
www.apache.org/dist/ have been adjusted to make use of
downloads.apache.org instead. We do however ask that projects, in their
own time-frame, change references on their own web sites from
www.apache.org/dist/ to downloads.apache.org wherever such references
may exist, to complete the switch in full. We will NOT be turning off
www.apache.org/dist/ in the near future, but would greatly appreciate if
projects could help us transition away from the old URLs in their
documentation and on their download pages.
The standard way of uploading releases[1] will STILL apply, however
there may be a short delay (<= 15 minutes) between releasing and
releases showing up on downloads.apache.org for technical reasons.

This JIRA aims at changing all references of download URL in our flink-web project accordingly.
