Eeshan Garg d312432ea8 docs: Update links to zulip-announce mailing list.
The links we have now redirect to "My groups" and not to our
Google group. Also, the RSS feed is no longer supported by Google,
so we should no longer link to it.

Fixes #19560.

* Provides a better place to link to from our "you need to upgrade" nag.

This content is not intended to be final, but should be finalized in

as deployments.

Shims are left behind at the previous names, for compatibility with
existing `zulip.conf` files when upgrading.

verifies it happens) into a common base class in `puppet/zulip`, since
it is generally useful.

in some cases the language is clearly explaining changes in the
