Doc lint updates to encourage the newer and easier-to-use
`synopsis` format, with fixes to a handful of existing uses.
* ja/doc-lint-sections-and-synopsis:
doc lint: check that synopsis manpages have synopsis inlines
doc:git-for-each-ref: fix styling and typos
doc: check for absence of the form --[no-]parameter
doc: check for absence of multiple terms in each entry of desc list
doc: check well-formedness of delimited sections
doc: test linkgit macros for well-formedness
For better searchability, this commit adds a check to ensure that parameters
expressed in the form of `--[no-]parameter` are not used in the
documentation. In the place of such parameters, the documentation should
list two separate parameters: `--parameter` and `--no-parameter`.

Adding a submodule at a path that previously hosted
another submodule (e.g., 'child') reuses the submodule
name derived from the path. If the original submodule
was only moved (e.g., to 'child_old') and not renamed,
this silently overwrites its configuration in .gitmodules.
This behavior loses user configuration and causes
confusion when the original submodule is expected
to remain intact. It assumes that the path-derived
name is always safe to reuse, even though the name
might still be in use elsewhere in the repository.
Teach module_add() to check if the computed submodule
name already exists in the repository's submodule config,
and if so, refuse the operation unless the user explicitly
renames the submodule or uses the --force option,
which will automatically generate a unique name by
appending a number (e.g., child1).

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.
