Shubham Padia a54d247111 help: Use 1. for numbered lists everywhere.
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.

# Manage inactive channels
In normal Zulip usage, channels fall in and out of use. By default, Zulip
automatically moves channels that haven't been used in a while to the
**Inactive** section at the bottom of your channels list in the left sidebar.
This helps prevent low-traffic channels from cluttering the left sidebar.
You can configure Zulip to move (demote) inactive channels more or less
aggressively. This is an advanced setting; you can safely ignore it if this
is your first time using Zulip.
### Manage inactive channels
{start_tabs}
{settings_tab|preferences}
1. Under **Information**, configure **Demote inactive channels**.
{end_tabs}
The default is **Automatic**, which demotes inactive channels once you're
subscribed to a minimum total number of channels. **Always** and **Never**
either demote or don't demote inactive channels regardless of how many
channels you have.
