Shubham Padia 304d948416 docs: Replace Advanced with relevant section for user Preferences. 
This is a followup commit to #30824.

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.

Configure unread message counters

To provide information about unread messages, Zulip can show unread message counters next to channel names in the left sidebar. This is likely to be helpful if you generally read (or otherwise mark as read) all the messages in a channel, but may otherwise feel unnecessary.

Zulip offers an option to display a dot instead of an unread counter for channels in the left sidebar. You can use a dot for all channels, or just for channels you have muted. You will still be able to see the number of unread messages in a channel by moving your mouse over it in the left sidebar.

{start_tabs}

{tab|desktop-web}

{settings_tab|preferences}

  1. Under Information, select your preferred option from the Show unread counts for dropdown.
