Lauryn Menard 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.

# Change the privacy of a stream
{!admin-only.md!}
Streams can be [web-public](/help/public-access-option), public or private,
and private streams can have shared or protected history.
See [stream permissions](/help/stream-permissions) for
details on stream privacy settings.
As an organization administrator, you can always make a public stream
private, but you must be subscribed to a private stream in order to make it
public.
### Change the privacy of a stream
{start_tabs}
{relative|stream|all}
1. Select a stream.
{!select-stream-view-general.md!}
1. Under **Stream permissions**, configure **Who can access the stream**.
{!save-changes.md!}
{end_tabs}
{!automated-notice-stream-event.md!}
!!! warn ""
**Warning**: Be careful making a private stream public. All past messages will become
accessible, even if the stream previously had protected history.
