345ea92b01 help: Document org setting to allow viewing only message moves.
Documents organization setting that configures what message edit
history can be viewed: content edits and topic/channel moves, only
topic/channel moves, or disabling viewing edit history completely.

Renames article to match new help article header and creates URL
redirect for previous article header.

Also, clean up and consolidate related articles.

Fixes #33684.

58d91dacd5 message_quoting: Rename 'Quote and reply' to 'Quote message'.
'Quote message' is a more accurate decription, as this option inserts
the quoted text into whatever message you're composing or editing;
it does not necessarily start a new reply.

Fixes first part of #31953.

bc0f9c4876 keyboard-shortcuts: Display "Ctrl" for Vim "Esc" keybinding behavior.
For all users, we want to display "Ctrl" for the "Ctrl" "[" keyboard
shortcuts that match the "Esc" Vim keybinding behavior.

We use the "data-mac-key" attribute to override the default mapping
of "Ctrl" to "Cmd" for Mac users in the documentation of these
keyboard shortcuts.

Fixes #20107.

a4d9c2e2c9 help: Convert emoji images to unicode emoji.
We had inconsistencies in the documentation where we were using emojis
directly in help documentations and sometimes we were using an img tag
for it. This commit aims to standardise it to just using emojis
directly.
See https://chat.zulip.org/#narrow/stream/19-documentation/topic/help.20center.20-.20emojis.20in.20markdown.20files/near/1954272
on more details on the decision.

3e3ca26aae docs: Update keyboard shortcuts to always show "Fn" key option.
Previously, these were only shown for Mac OS users and replaced
the "Home", "End", "PgUp" and "PgDn" shortcuts. But as this really
depends on the keyboard the user is using (there are Mac keyboards
with the above keys), we instead show both options in our web app
and help center documentation on keyboard shortcuts.

The tooltip for the "Scroll to bottom" button will now always show
"End" for all users. Previously, it showed a "Fn" key option for
Mac users.

Fixes #31815.

610f46d74e actions_popover: Rename "View message source".
This commit renames "View message source" to "View original message".

The meaning of "original" in this context is very similar to what
source/source code means in software jargon, while being easier to
understand and translate for a non-tech savvy user.

eae148b67a hotkey: Add Shift + V shortcut to toggle read receipts modal.
The read receipts option, resides under the triple-dot message actions
menu. This made the process of viewing the read receipts take up
multiple steps, even via a keyboard-driven workflow.

Via this commit, now while focused on any message in a message feed,
and pressing `Shift` + `V`, efficiently brings up the read receipts
for that message.

Fixes part of #24716.

972b4de7c4 hotkey: Correct Mac equivalent of Alt and handle exceptions separately.
Though the correct mapping for Alt in Mac is Option, we had so far been
mapping it to Command, since for the 2 pre-existing shortcuts that used
Alt, Command was the only key that worked on Mac. However, these are
exceptions.

Now we map Alt to Option, and handle the 2 exceptions separately, using
data attributes on those shortcut elements.

This is a prep commit for introducing a hotkey that uses Alt / Option.

c6ba33b7b4 hotkey: Repurpose s to toggle conversation view and remove shift+s.
Earlier, the `s` hotkey just narrowed to the stream of the selected
message (to a topic), while `shift+s` narrowed to the conversation view
(topic / dm) of the selected message.

Now, the `shift+s` hotkey has been removed (but retained for toggling
subscription to a stream when the stream overlay is active), and the `s`
hotkey takes on double duty: if the current view is not topic / dm, it
narrows to that, else when in topic view, it switches to stream view. It
has no effect when in dm view. Documentation has been updated for this
both in the help center, and the in-app `Keyboard shortcuts` menu.

A deprecation notice has been added for `shift+s` as well.

Fixes: #24226.

599a32bee9 hotkey: Add z shortcut to zoom to message near view.
A new hotkey, lowercase `z` (for `zoom`) has been implemented to allow
the user to go to the near view of the selected message with 1 keypress.
Documentation has been added for this both in the help center, and the
in-app `Keyboard shortcuts` menu.

The effect is identical to clicking on a message's timestamp, which
links to that message's near view.

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.
