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 2.25.1 Release Notes
========================
Fixes since v2.25
-----------------
* "git commit" gives output similar to "git status" when there is
nothing to commit, but without honoring the advise.statusHints
configuration variable, which has been corrected.
* has_object_file() said "no" given an object registered to the
system via pretend_object_file(), making it inconsistent with
read_object_file(), causing lazy fetch to attempt fetching an
empty tree from promisor remotes.
* The code that tries to skip over the entries for the paths in a
single directory using the cache-tree was not careful enough
against corrupt index file.
* Complete an update to tutorial that encourages "git switch" over
"git checkout" that was done only half-way.
* Reduce unnecessary round-trip when running "ls-remote" over the
stateless RPC mechanism.
* "git restore --staged" did not correctly update the cache-tree
structure, resulting in bogus trees to be written afterwards, which
has been corrected.
* The code recently added to move to the entry beyond the ones in the
same directory in the index in the sparse-cone mode did not count
the number of entries to skip over incorrectly, which has been
corrected.
* Work around test breakages caused by custom regex engine used in
libasan, when address sanitizer is used with more recent versions
of gcc and clang.
* "git fetch --refmap=" option has got a better documentation.
* Corner case bugs in "git clean" that stems from a (necessarily for
performance reasons) awkward calling convention in the directory
enumeration API has been corrected.
* "git grep --no-index" should not get affected by the contents of
the .gitmodules file but when "--recurse-submodules" is given or
the "submodule.recurse" variable is set, it did. Now these
settings are ignored in the "--no-index" mode.
* Technical details of the bundle format has been documented.
* Unhelpful warning messages during documentation build have been
squelched.
Also contains various documentation updates, code clean-ups and minor fixups.
