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 v1.6.3.3 Release Notes
==========================
Fixes since v1.6.3.2
--------------------
* "git archive" running on Cygwin can get stuck in an infinite loop.
* "git daemon" did not correctly parse the initial line that carries
virtual host request information.
* "git diff --textconv" leaked memory badly when the textconv filter
errored out.
* The built-in regular expressions to pick function names to put on
hunk header lines for java and objc were very inefficiently written.
* in certain error situations git-fetch (and git-clone) on Windows didn't
detect connection abort and ended up waiting indefinitely.
* import-tars script (in contrib) did not import symbolic links correctly.
* http.c used CURLOPT_SSLKEY even on libcURL version 7.9.2, even though
it was only available starting 7.9.3.
* low-level filelevel merge driver used return value from strdup()
without checking if we ran out of memory.
* "git rebase -i" left stray closing parenthesis in its reflog message.
* "git remote show" did not show all the URLs associated with the named
remote, even though "git remote -v" did. Made them consistent by
making the former show all URLs.
* "whitespace" attribute that is set was meant to detect all errors known
to git, but it told git to ignore trailing carriage-returns.
Includes other documentation fixes.
