Alya Abbott 279f7b1c8d user docs: Create separate "Code blocks" user documentation page.
* Move the extended documentation of code blocks to a separate page.
* Merge "code playgrounds" documentation to be a section of that page.
* Document copy widget on code blocks.
* This commit changes how we refer to "```python" type syntax for code
  blocks. Instead of being called a syntax highlighting label, this is
  now referred to as a "language tag", since it serves both syntax
  highlighting and playgrounds.
* Remap all the links.
* Advertise this new page in various places that previously did not have a link.

Alex Vandiver 4c88da8ed9 scripts: Tool to find the diff to an original settings.py prod template.
This hits the unauthenticated Github API to get the list of tags,
which is rate-limited to 60 requests per hour.  This means that the
tool can only be run 60 times per hour before it starts to exit with
errors, but that seems like a reasonable limit for the moment.

be.

Alex Vandiver 476524c0c1 scripts: Add a script to stop the server.
Using `supervisorctl stop all` to stop the server is not terribly
discoverable, and may stop services which are not part of Zulip
proper.

Add an explicit tool which only stops the relevant services.  It also
more carefully controls the order in which services are stopped to
minimize lost requests, and maximally quiesce the server.

Locations which may be stopping _older_ versions of Zulip (without
this script) are left with using `supervisorctl stop all`.

Fixes #14959.

This is unrelated to the X-Real-IP configuration that nginx will add,
and is unused by Zulip.  Remove it, to reduce confusion.

Strifel 209c89be10 ldap: Add option to limit user access to certain realms.
This adds an option for restricting a ldap user
to only be allowed to login into certain realms.
This is done by configuring an attribute mapping of "org_membership"
to an ldap attribute that will contain the list of subdomains the ldap
user is allowed to access. This is analogous to how it's done in SAML.
