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.

Notes on restricting private messages
-
Disabling private messages will cause sending a private message to throw an error; the Zulip UI will appear to still allow private messages. We expect to make some UI adjustments when private messages are disabled during the beta period.
-
Even if private messages are disabled, users can still exchange direct private messages with bot users (this detail is important for Zulip's new user onboarding experience). Consider also restricting bot creation when using this feature.
-
Restricting private messages does not automatically restrict creating private streams.
