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 v1.7.10.4 Release Notes
===========================
Fixes since v1.7.10.3
---------------------
* The message file for Swedish translation has been updated a bit.
* A name taken from mailmap was copied into an internal buffer
incorrectly and could overrun the buffer if it is too long.
* A malformed commit object that has a header line chomped in the
middle could kill git with a NULL pointer dereference.
* An author/committer name that is a single character was mishandled
as an invalid name by mistake.
* The progress indicator for a large "git checkout" was sent to
stderr even if it is not a terminal.
* "git grep -e '$pattern'", unlike the case where the patterns are
read from a file, did not treat individual lines in the given
pattern argument as separate regular expressions as it should.
* When "git rebase" was given a bad commit to replay the history on,
its error message did not correctly give the command line argument
it had trouble parsing.
Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
