Shubham Padia 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.

# Typing notifications
The Zulip web app displays typing notifications in [conversation
views](/help/reading-conversations) and [**All direct
messages**](/help/direct-messages#access-all-dms). Typing
notifications are not shown in channels with more than 100
subscribers. The mobile app displays typing notifications in direct
message conversations.
Typing notifications are only sent while one is actively editing text in
the compose box. They disappear if typing is paused for several seconds,
if all the content of the message is erased, or if the message is
[saved as a draft](/help/view-and-edit-your-message-drafts#save-a-draft).
Just having the compose box open will not send a typing notification.
## Disable sending typing notifications
If you'd prefer that others not know whether you're typing, you can
configure Zulip to not send typing notifications.
{start_tabs}
{tab|desktop-web}
{settings_tab|account-and-privacy}
1. Under **Privacy**, toggle **Let recipients see when I'm typing direct
messages** and **Let recipients see when I'm typing messages in channels**.
{end_tabs}
## Disable seeing typing notifications
If you'd prefer not to see notifications when others type, you can disable them.
{start_tabs}
{tab|desktop-web}
{settings_tab|preferences}
1. Under **Information**, toggle **Show when other users are typing**.
{end_tabs}
