Self-hosted privacy policy, terms of service and code of conduct

People who self-host chapter will need a way to provide their own versions of these.

As @allella mentioned https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/chapter/issues/2373#issuecomment-1438686164 the simplest approach would be to leave them as links, but allow them to be customised.

There are two main tasks

• [ ] Persist the URLs
• [ ] Use the URLs instead of the hard-coded values

While the best UX is probably to provide a GUI to customise the variables (and persist them in the database) the simplest approach (sufficient for the MVP) would be to store them in environment variables.

Thinking about it, since there's a fair bit of site configuration, it might be best to create a dashboard page. It's more effort, but I think it's probably worth it given how many environment variables we would end up with. Also, having to redeploy the site to fix a typo in the description would be frustrating.
