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 stream description
{!admin-only.md!}
Streams descriptions are displayed when viewing the stream in the
web and desktop apps, and can be used to explain the purpose of a
stream and link to usage guidelines, resources, or related streams.
Stream descriptions support Zulip's standard [Markdown
formatting][markdown-formatting], with the exception that image
previews are disabled.
