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 v1.6.3.4 Release Notes
==========================
Fixes since v1.6.3.3
--------------------
* "git add --no-ignore-errors" did not override configured
add.ignore-errors configuration.
* "git apply --whitespace=fix" did not fix trailing whitespace on an
incomplete line.
* "git branch" opened too many commit objects unnecessarily.
* "git checkout -f $commit" with a path that is a file (or a symlink) in
the work tree to a commit that has a directory at the path issued an
unnecessary error message.
* "git diff -c/--cc" was very inefficient in coalescing the removed lines
shared between parents.
* "git diff -c/--cc" showed removed lines at the beginning of a file
incorrectly.
* "git remote show nickname" did not honor configured
remote.nickname.uploadpack when inspecting the branches at the remote.
* "git request-pull" when talking to the terminal for a preview
showed some of the output in the pager.
* "git request-pull start nickname [end]" did not honor configured
remote.nickname.uploadpack when it ran git-ls-remote against the remote
repository to learn the current tip of branches.
Includes other documentation updates and minor fixes.
