Describe the bug
Noticed when browsing this Hacker News post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21376557

https://svelte.dev works fine, just svelte.dev also resolves without issue but both www.svelte.dev and https://www.svelte.dev do not redirect or return any content

To Reproduce
Attempt to visit www.svelte.dev or https://www.svelte.dev

Expected behavior
www subdomain should redirect to the non www version

Severity
Minor

www.svelte.dev now redirects to svelte.dev, and we can finally begin the long journey to regaining that lost confidence.

I was amused by the HN comment saying that www.svelte.dev not redirecting "doesn't inspire confidence".

I can see that they're using Cloudflare for Caching. It's just a 30-second job honestly, I have no idea what's stopping them. I've done this specific thing for hundreds of clients in the past. You just need to duplicate the "A record" pointing to the original IP address that the primary domain "svelte.dev" points to for the www subdomain within CloudFlare's DNS zone.

We'll add it to all the other 30 second jobs.
