api docs: Document the get-streams endpoint.

This commit documents the get-streams endpoint, which can be
by making a GET request to /api/v1/streams.

Note that in the code examples, JavaScript is missing an example
for how to pass in the `include_` query parameters. That is
because zulip-js's client.streams.retrieve function doesn't take
any arguments and zulip-js does not export any function equivalent
to client.call_endpoint in python-zulip-api/zulip.
