Describe the Bug

When a chapter is moved to another book, old links are not redirected but lead to a 404 page. This behavior is unlike page links, where previous slugs will redirect to the new location.

Steps to Reproduce

Create a chapter, save "old link"
Move chapter to different book
Try old link

Expected Behaviour

Redirection to new chapter location.

Thanks for raising, but I'd consider the fundamental issue to already be covered & discussed across issues #732, #1969, #3520
