palashb01 dee63680df docs: Update time format and Emoticon help page.
Updated the title and description in the 'enable-emoticon-translation'
file and renamed the file accordingly. Added a new bullet point for
'time format' in the 'configure-new-user-settings.md' file and updated
the sidebar index by replacing the title 'Use 24-hour time' with
'Change the time format'.

# Configure default settings for new users
{!admin-only.md!}
Organization administrators can configure the default values of
personal preference settings for new users joining the
organization. This can help seamlessly customize the Zulip experience
to match how the organization in question is using Zulip.
Existing users' preferences cannot be modified by administrators, and
users will be able to customize their own settings once they
join. Administrators can customize defaults for all personal
preference settings, including the following:
* Privacy settings, including:
* [Displaying availability to other users](/help/status-and-availability)
* [Allowing others to see when the user has read messages](/help/read-receipts)
* Display settings, including:
* Default view ([Recent conversations](/help/recent-conversations) vs.
[All messages](/help/reading-strategies#all-messages))
* [Light theme vs. dark theme](/help/dark-theme)
* [Emoji theme](/help/emoji-and-emoticons#change-your-emoji-set)
* [Time format](/help/change-the-time-format)
* Notification settings, including:
* [What types of messages trigger notifications][default-notifications]
* [Configurations for email notifications](/help/email-notifications)
[default-notifications]: /help/stream-notifications#set-default-notifications-for-all-streams
