42379a8cd1 docs: Reformat review feedback section.
This mostly preserves the general shape of the text, but adds a bit of
a bulleted checklist to help make it more skimmable.

This better fits the organization of our files; I would have fixed

6206d0486a docs: Document official private streams.
These aren't relevant to most users, but in the interest of
transparency, we also don't want the existence of these to feel like a
secret.  And maybe publishing their existence will result in folks who
we forget to add to these private streams asking about them.

this -- namely, use of `select_related`.

- I fixed a typo with "lowerecase"
- I elaborated on the prefix before elaborating
  on the rest of the message (i.e. went in correct
  order).
- I split out the provision example (since we
  talk about it some depth).
- I added more positive examples.
- I removed the distracting italics around the
  good commit messages.
- I moved the "gather_subscriptions" commit to
  the bottom of the list, since we elaborate
  on that below the list.

bdbc384de5 docs: Reduce the number of apparently broken links on github.
- Updated 260+ links from ".html" to ".md" to reduce the number of issues
reported about hyperlinks not working when viewing docs on Github.
- Removed temporary workaround that suppressed all warnings reported
by sphinx build for every link ending in ".html".

Details:
The recent upgrade to recommonmark==0.5.0 supports auto-converting
".md" links to ".html" so that the resulting HTML output is correct.

Notice that links pointing to a heading i.e. "../filename.html#heading",
were not updated because recommonmark does not auto-convert them.
These links do not generate build warnings and do not cause any issues.
However, there are about ~100 such links that might still get misreported
as broken links.  This will be a follow-up issue.

Background:
docs: pip upgrade recommonmark and CommonMark #13013
docs: Allow .md links between doc pages #11719

Fixes #11087.

04e6c3bd18 docs/version-control: Set commit message line limit to 70.
https://github.com/zulip/zulip-mobile/pull/3404#issuecomment-477411875

A discussion followed at

https://chat.zulip.org/#narrow/stream/3-backend/topic/commit.20line.20length

and that was agreed on for the commit message body, but noted that a
length of 76 was acceptable for the summary because of the
single-line constraint and the fact that it ends in a period, making
it clear where it ends.

0d52d24d64 docs: pip upgrade recommonmark and CommonMark
Summary:
- recommonmark: 0.4.0 -> 0.5.0
- CommonMark: 0.5.4 -> 0.9.0
- Fixed links getting their .md file extension cut off
- Supressed 262 new warnings

Details:
Appended #anchors to markdown github links as a workaround to
recommonmark 0.5.0 cutting off the ".md" part from them.
Sphinx build would fail as follows

[documentation_crawler] ERROR: Please check link:
<404 https://github.com/zulip/zulipbot/blob/master/.github/CONTRIBUTING>
<404 https://github.com/zulip/zulip/blob/master/requirements/README>
<404 https://github.com/zulip/python-zulip-api/blob/master/zulip_bots/README>

sphinx build would also log a "WARNING: None:any reference target not found"
for every link ending in .html
So a good temporary solution is to suppress all warnings with the method suggested here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37359407/suppress-warnings-for-unfound-references-with-default-role-any-in-sphinx

A better solution would be to edit all links ending .html and use .md instead;
which would also solve PR #11719.

Fixes #11395.
