I think the intent is just uploading the output HTML and static assets.

I agree having the temporary output of PR docs build is useful, but I don't
think a python.org domain is necessary. If it can be uploaded to any cloud
storage service then that's good enough, just provide the link in the
status check. The output can be cleared after it receive the PR closed
webhook.
