Commit message

[r=jelmer][bug=772016] Document in the +mailinglist page that email addresses not registered in LP will be silently discarded, fix link to more up to date documentation.

Description of the change

== Summary ==

This branch includes a note in the +mailinglist page stating that email
addresses not registered in LP will be silently discarded.
It also fixes the link to "Help for mailing lists" to point to the most
current documentation and rewrites the paragraph concerning ubuntu list
creation.

== Pre-implementation notes ==

Matthew helped with the text changes and Robert suggested that
help.launchpad.net should also include documentation about this behaviour. I
checked the page on the wiki and there's already documentation there about it.

== Tests ==

./bin/test -t stories/mailinglists

== Demo and Q/A ==

1. Open https://launchpad.dev/~ubuntu-team/+mailinglist

You'll see a note stating that email addresses not registered in LP will be
be discarded.

Another nice small UI cleanup. :)

Perhaps a bit pedantic, but maybe it should say that email is discarded rather than deleted as (at least as far as the user can tell) it is never stored in the first place.
