Allow CircleCI to load version switcher hosted on matplotlib.org #27861
Description
I'm currently trying to bump the version of pydata-sphinx-theme that we're using (#27658), so we can get recent accessibility improvements from the theme. It's not currently possible to load the version switcher hosted at https://matplotlib.org/devdocs/_static/switcher.json on the documentation build that CircleCI generates. The console error is:
Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://matplotlib.org/devdocs/_static/switcher.json?v3.8.1-1173-gfa55c9f44. (Reason: CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ missing). Status code: 200.
Is there anyone who has access to the Matplotlib website that can fix this to allow pages served by https://output.circle-artifacts.com to load https://matplotlib.org/devdocs/_static/switcher.json ? If this needs any more debugging, here's a link to the full CircleCI doc build on the PR updating pydata-sphinx-theme.

I'm not sure that we want to open up the holes required to opt out of that CORS protection.

👍 in that case (I have zero knowledge/experience of these things) I'm happy to close this, and work out how to turn off the version switcher in the CircleCI build.

FWIW I worked out how to use the version switcher that circleCI hosts with each artifact upload, so no need for this PR or a workaround on the circleCI builds.

Some time ago, I manually allowed this for CircleCI. However, this was not a long-term solution, so it was overwritten the next time we refreshed the server, which is why it stopped working again.
