GitHub's image proxy (camo) currently gets HTTP 429 from Read the Docs when fetching the badge, so the README shows a broken image. shields.io fetches the Read the Docs status on its own servers and caches it, like the PyPI and license badges already do.

Purpose
Hej,
this is the fix for the issue with the GitHub README I reported in #14779.
The underlines come from line breaks inside the badge links.
Each standalone
.. image::directive is written as its own link with a line break before</a>.This fix groups the badges into one line using substitutions.
GitHub's reST renderer also adds a line break after images whose URL ends in
.svg, so the badge URLs no longer end in.svg.The documentation badge fails because Read the Docs rate-limits GitHub's image proxy.
This fix serves it from shields.io instead, like the PyPI and license badges already are.
With the fix, all four badges render without underlines on the branch's README.
