It doesn't make any sense to start out by saying "rewind can also be set by..." and then the MQTT/SSE fallback method when we haven't told anyone the actual, main method that they should use with ably SDKs yet. Nor to have that as a top-level paragraph followed by an inset note explaining when you should use that method (for mqtt and sse), it's not at all obvious that the inset note is meant to tell you when to use the previous not-inset paragraph

I think this was a regression from #1937

also fix a bunch of places on that page where we call it a channel option not a channel param

…thing we tell people about

It doesn't make sense to start out by saying "rewind can _also_ be set
by..." and then giving the MQTT/SSE fallback method when we haven't told
people the actual, real method yet. Nor to have that as a top-level
paragraph followed by an inset note explaining when you should use that
method, it's absolutely not intuitive that the inset note is meant to
qualify the previous not-inset paragraph
channel options:

channel params: possible values for the channelOptions.params map
