a54d247111 help: Use 1. for numbered lists everywhere.
The conversion script for help-beta assumes that all items in a numbered
list start with 1. which was a wrong assumption. This commit attempts to
fix that. We are not introducing any lint step to tackle this since it
will be easy to just check for this again before the cutover happens.
We do not change this for `numbered-list-examples.md` since that example
shows how the current numbered lists work and we might still want to
show that. We can decide what to do with that file once the time of
cutover arrives.

ebc48c97be help: Remove "Configure automatically marked as read" mobile tab.
Marking unread messages as read when scrolling is not yet implemented
for the initial launch of the Flutter mobile app, so we remove
the legacy React Native app instructions.

304d948416 docs: Replace Advanced with relevant section for user Preferences.
This is a followup commit to #30824.
Fixes
https://chat.zulip.org/#narrow/stream/9-issues/topic/.F0.9F.8E.AF.20help.20not.20updated.20for.20new.20preferences.20sections/near/1899330.
git grep in the help directory will still show up results for `Advanced`
but those are mostly used in either plain english language instructions
or refer to some other part of the app. At the point of writing this
commit, there were 6 results for `Advanced`, 4 of which were plain
english, 1 refers to the Advanced settings in chrome for desktop
notifications, and another one refers to `Advanced configurations` for
channel settings.

245c855376 user_setting: Update wording for "Mark messages as read on scroll" setting.
Previously, the user setting "Mark messages as read on scroll" sounded
quite awkward and possibly confusing at times. We should update the text
to something more clear and concise. This change will change "Mark messages
as read on scroll" to "Automatically mark messages as read".

The help center article is also fixed to name which setting is being
adjusted.

dedea23745 help-docs: Move help center documentation to top level directory.
These files are not Jinja2 templates, so there's no reason that they needed
to be inside `templates/zerver`. Moving them to the top level reflects their
importance and also makes it feel nicer to work on editing the help center content, 
without it being unnecessary buried deep in the codebase.
