Does such a utility exist?
Sigil and Calibre's Editor both have:

Tools > Reports > Links

They break down all <a> links, the text inside, and whether the destination actually exists. You're able to sort by columns, and it lets you easily spot inconsistencies.

Calibre also even has a Tools > External Links > Check External Links which visits every URL and lets you know if it's alive or not. Very helpful for catching dead links so you can update them.
