The conversion script for help-beta assumes that all items in a numbered list start with 1. which was a wrong assumption. This commit attempts to fix that. We are not introducing any lint step to tackle this since it will be easy to just check for this again before the cutover happens. We do not change this for `numbered-list-examples.md` since that example shows how the current numbered lists work and we might still want to show that. We can decide what to do with that file once the time of cutover arrives.
