Documentation for git-merge incorrectly notes that
tip of the current branch on ascii diagram is C,
while it is actually G (current branch is master,
HEAD on diagram is G).
Additionally diagrams on the page are adjusted
to use spaces instead of tabs, so that they align
regardless of tab size. This is in line with
diagrams on other git documentation pages.

"git merge" and "git pull" shows "git diff --stat --summary @{1}"
when they finish to indicate the extent of the changes brought into
the history by default. While it gives a good overview, it becomes
annoying when there are very many created or deleted paths.
Introduce "--compact-summary" option to these two commands that
tells it to instead show "git diff --compact-summary @{1}", which
gives the same information in a lot more compact form in such a
situation.

- Switch the synopsis to a synopsis block which will automatically
format placeholders in italics and keywords in monospace
- Use _<placeholder>_ instead of <placeholder> in the description
- Use `backticks` for keywords and more complex option
descriptions. The new rendering engine will apply synopsis rules to
these spans.
In order to avoid breaking the format on '<<<<<<' and '>>>>>' lines
by applying the synopsis rules to these spans, they are formatted using '+'
signs instead of '`' signs.

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.
