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 v1.7.6.3 Release Notes
==========================
Fixes since v1.7.6.2
--------------------
* "git -c var=value subcmd" misparsed the custom configuration when
value contained an equal sign.
* "git fetch" had a major performance regression, wasting many
needless cycles in a repository where there is no submodules
present. This was especially bad, when there were many refs.
* "git reflog $refname" did not default to the "show" subcommand as
the documentation advertised the command to do.
* "git reset" did not leave meaningful log message in the reflog.
* "git status --ignored" did not show ignored items when there is no
untracked items.
* "git tag --contains $commit" was unnecessarily inefficient.
Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
