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 v1.7.8.5 Release Notes
==========================
Fixes since v1.7.8.4
--------------------
* Dependency on our thread-utils.h header file was missing for
objects that depend on it in the Makefile.
* "git am" when fed an empty file did not correctly finish reading it
when it attempts to guess the input format.
* "git grep -P" (when PCRE is enabled in the build) did not match the
beginning and the end of the line correctly with ^ and $.
* "git rebase -m" tried to run "git notes copy" needlessly when
nothing was rewritten.
Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
