Make sure that normal paragraphs in most user-facing docs[1] don’t
use literal blocks. This can easily happen if you try to maintain
indentation in order to continue a block; that might work in
e.g. Markdown variants, but not in AsciiDoc.
The fixes are straightforward, i.e. just deindent the block and maybe
add line continuations. The only exception is git-sparse-checkout(1)
where we also replace indentation used for *intended* literal blocks
with `----`.

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`.

This option was introduced in a series of commits from fe3ccc7aab (Merge
branch 'ps/config-subcommands', 2024-05-15) and deprecated
`value-pattern`. But `value-pattern` is still used throughout the doc.
The deprecated modes have been quarantined in the “Deprecated Modes”
section. So let’s only use `--value=<pattern>` in the rest of the doc.

These options were introduced in a series of commits from
fe3ccc7aab (Merge branch 'ps/config-subcommands', 2024-05-15).[1]
But they were not documented here.
Document this option and the negated form according to the current
convention.[2]
[1]: `--value` is a replacement for the `value-pattern`
positional argument

This option was introduced in a series of commits from fe3ccc7aab (Merge
branch 'ps/config-subcommands', 2024-05-15). But two styles were used
for the value provided to the option:
1. Synopsis: `--value=<value>`
2. Deprecated Modes: `--value=<pattern>`
(2) is also used in the synopsis on the command.
Use (2) consistently throughout since it’s a pattern in the general
case (`value` sounds more generic).

Use the description from the source code.
Document this option and the negated form according to the current

`--show-names` is also the default when `--get-regexp` is given. But
don’t mention it here since all the deprecated modes are quarantined in
the “Deprecated Modes” section.

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.
