Provide options to add Simple Sitemap files to robot.txt

Problem/Motivation

Adding a sitemap to the robots.txt file is quick to do. However, because the sitemap file's URL has to be listed as an absolute URL it makes it harder to automate the process to have the correct URL when working with either multiple sites or multiple site environments (e.g. a test or dev copy of the site).

When the robotstxt integration was removed from Simple Sitemap → #3002208: Remove robotstxt module support → it left sites without a simple turn-key option to integrate the two modules.

Proposed resolution

Provide a list of each sitemap provided by Simple Sitemap with a checkbox to add them to the robots.txt file.

Remaining tasks

Build the necessary integration.

User interface changes

New checkboxs would be visible on the robotstxt admin page for each sitemap provided by Simple Sitemap.
