In our current implementation, loose lists and tight lists look the same
visually. Loose lists are lists with blank lines between list items, and
the contents of a list item should be enclosed in a paragraph tag in
that case. For unordered lists, paragraph tags have a bottom margin in
starlight and thus looses lists look much more spaced out than tight
lists.
That is not the behaviour we had in mind while writing the
documentation, the reason we had all these loose lists is to make the
documentation easy to write and read. So we attempt to remove all the
blank lines and fix the problem at source. Since paragraph tags are used
for other purposes in a list in starlight, it won't be a wise decision
to let the source be as is and just change things in css, other expected
behaviours might break in that case. See this topic for more details:

All the changes were made by a one-off script which has not been
commited to the repo. The script wasn't perfect and could not decide
between blank lines that make a list loose vs blank lines necessary for
a sub-list or a code block inside a list item. A manual review of all
the changes was done before making this commit to ensure that no
unintended changes were made to the help center files.
In order to only generate relative links for Zulip Cloud billing
specific gear menu options in relevant help center articles, we
pass down settings.CORPORATE_ENABLED to be set as a global variable
for zerver/lib/markdown/help_relative_links.py so that self-hosted
servers' help center documentation will not have these links.
Updates the self-hosted and Zulip Cloud billing articles for features
that have been added to billing management such as paying by invoice,
adding billing contact information, viewing past invoices, etc.
Revises text to be cleaner and clearer in some places.
More consistently uses bold (when not linked) for plan names.
Fixes a few errors or omissions in existing instructions.

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.
