Using nightlies.a.o was suggested by infra some time ago; see ticket
INFRA-20849 (including comments):

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-20849

There were also some thoughts on Slack about this; see the following
messages for that (read the messages further to the top as well):

This is also a possibility and is up to the project. Having the docs on a
separate branch is surely possible.

For the MINA project there are multiple branches for the generated docs,
but I think it should be possible to use a single branch for this as well
with some RewriteRules in place.
