Add matrix to support (#26382)
This PR adds our matrix space to the support options and alphabetizes
the list.

I also considered adding our Mastodon, however that isn't as suitable as
the other options because it's just whoever has access to the account vs
a community chat/forum.

Support Options

NOTE: When asking for support, it may be a good idea to have the following available so that the person helping has all the info they need:

  1. Your app.ini (with any sensitive data scrubbed as necessary).

  2. The Gitea logs, and any other appropriate log files for the situation.

    • When using systemd, use journalctl --lines 1000 --unit gitea to collect logs.
    • When using docker, use docker logs --tail 1000 <gitea-container> to collect logs.
    • By default, the logs are outputted to console. If you need to collect logs from files, you could copy the following config into your app.ini (remove all other [log] sections), then you can find the *.log files in Gitea's log directory (default: %(GITEA_WORK_DIR)/log).
    ; To show all SQL logs, you can also set LOG_SQL=true in the [database] section
    [log]
    LEVEL=debug
    MODE=console,file
    
  3. Any error messages you are seeing.

  4. When possible, try to replicate the issue on try.gitea.io and include steps so that others can reproduce the issue.

    • This will greatly improve the chance that the root of the issue can be quickly discovered and resolved.
  5. If you encounter slow/hanging/deadlock problems, please report the stack trace when the problem occurs. Go to the "Site Admin" -> "Monitoring" -> "Stacktrace" -> "Download diagnosis report".
