Edit some channel settings

[gnprice]

In the zulip-mobile legacy app, when you're looking at the details of a stream/channel and you're an admin, there's an "Edit stream" button. That takes you to a screen where you can edit the channel's

• name;
• description;
• and channel permissions, i.e. private-with-protected-history vs. private-with-shared-history vs. public vs. web-public.

We should add the same feature here.

The Zulip web app has various other channel settings you can edit; those are out of scope for this issue.

Implementing this properly will require #814, because with new servers "if you're an admin" is no longer the right check for (whether you have permission to edit these settings, and therefore) whether we should show this UI — instead there's a per-channel group-setting value can_administer_channel_group.

This will need a design before it's ready to implement, so adding the a-design label assigning "Needs design" for the "owner" field (thanks Greg for clarifying this process in chat).

Moving to the later milestone "M7: Future" following Alya's comment in chat:

Implementing managing personal settings and subscribers, but not general channel settings, feels like a coherent line to draw.
