Redirect management

Description

Currently eu.wordcamp.org redirects to central.wordcamp.org.

As eu... is a logical guess for the WCEU url I think it makes sense to redirect it to the site. The redirect would be best if it took sub-directory requests in to account, eg eu.wordcamp.org/2024/speakers/ would redirect to the 2024 speakers page.
