Lauryn Menard 8ace23ffa9 docs: Update help center links for stream to channel rename.
Fixes the URLRedirects for "help/about-streams-and-topics" and
"help/streams-and-topics" to go to "/help/introduction-to-topics"
since "help/channels-and-topics" has been redirected to that URL.

Lauryn Menard 96a3d78d86 docs: Update redirecting articles section to note zulip announcements.
When updating the codebase for URL redirects for help center article
renames, we note that the content for zulip update announcements
should keep the old URL/name for the article. It's preferable that
the source code accurately reflect what users received for these
announcments and the redirect will ensure that these links continue
to work.

Lauryn Menard 7e7e6b7ba9 integration-docs: Clarify use of event-filtering-additional-feature.
Using an if block when {!event-filtering-additional-feature.md!}
is used implied that we plan to have this in all webhook doc .md
files.

But, it actually makes sense to only use this macro when the
webhook integration actually supports event filtering.

Updates all the https://chat.zulip.org/#narrow/stream/ links in the
docs and comments to use the new /channel/ path. All these links are
for documentation/reference purposes only and thus, can be bulk-updated.

bjorn3 78176d8982 openapi: Move description from SuccessDescription to JsonSuccessBase.
Almost all users of JsonSuccessBase seem to also include
SuccessDescription. /server_settings used a different description from
the rest of the JsonSuccessBase users, but the difference is small
enough that using the generic description of the former
SuccessDescription is fine.

Anders Kaseorg c1675913a2 web: Move web app to ‘web’ directory.
Ever since we started bundling the app with webpack, there’s been less
and less overlap between our ‘static’ directory (files belonging to
the frontend app) and Django’s interpretation of the ‘static’
directory (files served directly to the web).

Split the app out to its own ‘web’ directory outside of ‘static’, and
remove all the custom collectstatic --ignore rules.  This makes it
much clearer what’s actually being served to the web, and what’s being
bundled by webpack.  It also shrinks the release tarball by 3%.

help-docs: Move help center documentation to top level directory.
These files are not Jinja2 templates, so there's no reason that they needed
to be inside `templates/zerver`. Moving them to the top level reflects their
importance and also makes it feel nicer to work on editing the help center content, 
without it being unnecessary buried deep in the codebase.

Lauryn Menard c2bcfb52aa api-tests: Reduce error output for `/register` openapi validation.
For descriptive endpoints, such as `/register`, that might raise
Schema Validation errors via `validate_against_openapi_schema`,
omits the OpenAPI schema definition in the error output.

Also omits the error instance definition in the error output
when it is a jsonschema object with over 100 properties. This
means that the test instance for objects, like user settings,
will be printed in the error output, but the test instance for
the entire endpoint will not be printed to the console.

The omitted output can be thousands of lines long making it
difficult to find the initial console output that actually helps
the contributor with debugging.

Adds a section in "Documenting REST API endpoints" about
debugging and understanding these errors that is linked to
in the error console output.

Lauryn Menard 6759767b14 api-docs: Move include markdown macro files for API documentation.
Moves files in `templates/zerver/help/include` that are used
specifically for API documentation pages to be in a new directory:
`templates/zerver/api/include`.

Adds a boolean parameter to `render_markdown_path` to be used
for help center documentation articles.

Also moves the test file `empty.md` to the new directory since
this is the default directory for these special include macros
that are used in documentation pages.

Zixuan James Li 6b527dfa61 integrations: Add documentation for the event filtering system.
We create "event-filter-instruction.md" and add it to
"create-bot-construct-url.md". This allows the user to keep track of the
supported event types for most of the integrations that implement this
feature. Note that not all integrations use "create-bot-construct-url.md".

We also need to rename "function" to "view_function" to make this change
type-check.

This is relevant to #18392.

Lauryn Menard 878b46e758 urls: Simplify process to add URL redirects for documentation pages.
Creates `zerver.lib.url_redirects.py` to record old and new URLs
for documentation pages that have been renamed/moved and need URL
redirects.

This file is then used by `zproject.urls.py` to redirect links and
by `zerver.test.test_urls.py` to test that all of the old URLs
return a success response with a common page header/text depending
on the type of redirect (help center, policy, or API).

Adds a section to contributor docs on writing documentation for
how to use this redirect system when renaming a help center or api
documentation page.

Fixes #21946. Fixes #17897.

Anders Kaseorg 75525f5b53 docs: Convert .html#fragment links to .md#fragment.
This uses the myst_heading_anchors option to automatically generate

https://myst-parser.readthedocs.io/en/latest/syntax/optional.html#auto-generated-header-anchors.

Note: to be compatible with GitHub, MyST-Parser uses a slightly
different convention for .md fragment links than .html fragment links
when punctuation is involved.  This does not affect the generated
fragment links in the HTML output.
