Subject: [PATCH] fix(team): show the full core team in its saved order

The core team left out anyone who also appears in the top mentors row, which dropped Zeeshan Adil and Moeez Ahmad from the top of the list. Everyone now shows in the order set in the admin. Also hides Ahsaan Ullah, Falak Sher, Zulkifal, Muhammad Junaid Raza, Usama Razzaq and Haris Baig from the page; their records stay in the database.
