create streams: Remove "Stream permissions" header. The header was more confusing than helpful, and we want the create-stream UI to be less cluttered. We don't really need the help-center text here, since we already have ? icons next to the relevant headings for the sub-sections. We kill off some CSS, but we won't kill off stream-title until the big upcoming changes for stream pills.

help_docs: Update create stream doc for choosing subscribers. As the different settings are described in the help center doc for creating a new stream, we need to update the final setting name from 'People to add' to the new 'Choose subscribers' that is in the UI. Also, updates that setting description to include adding users via user groups or the new add all users option.
2022-03-09 19:20:02 +01:00
* **Choose subscribers**: You can copy the membership from an existing stream or
[user group](/help/user-groups), add all users, or enter users one by one.
