brian m. carlson 1f010d6bdf doc: use .adoc extension for AsciiDoc files
We presently use the ".txt" extension for our AsciiDoc files.  While not
wrong, most editors do not associate this extension with AsciiDoc,
meaning that contributors don't get automatic editor functionality that
could be useful, such as syntax highlighting and prose linting.

It is much more common to use the ".adoc" extension for AsciiDoc files,
since this helps editors automatically detect files and also allows
various forges to provide rich (HTML-like) rendering.  Let's do that
here, renaming all of the files and updating the includes where
relevant.  Adjust the various build scripts and makefiles to use the new
extension as well.

Note that this should not result in any user-visible changes to the
documentation.

GIT v1.5.3.6 Release Notes
==========================
Fixes since v1.5.3.5
--------------------
* git-cvsexportcommit handles root commits better.
* git-svn dcommit used to clobber when sending a series of
patches.
* git-svn dcommit failed after attempting to rebase when
started with a dirty index; now it stops upfront.
* git-grep sometimes refused to work when your index was
unmerged.
* "git-grep -A1 -B2" acted as if it was told to run "git -A1 -B21".
* git-hash-object did not honor configuration variables, such as
core.compression.
* git-index-pack choked on a huge pack on 32-bit machines, even when
large file offsets are supported.
* atom feeds from git-web said "10" for the month of November.
* a memory leak in commit walker was plugged.
* When git-send-email inserted the original author's From:
address in body, it did not mark the message with
Content-type: as needed.
* git-revert and git-cherry-pick incorrectly refused to start
when the work tree was dirty.
* git-clean did not honor core.excludesfile configuration.
* git-add mishandled ".gitignore" files when applying them to
subdirectories.
* While importing a too branchy history, git-fastimport did not
honor delta depth limit properly.
* Support for zlib implementations that lack ZLIB_VERNUM and definition
of deflateBound() has been added.
* Quite a lot of documentation clarifications.
