Now that -L flows through log_tree_diff_flush() and diff_flush(),
metadata-only diff formats work because they only read filepair
fields (status, mode, path, oid) already set on the pre-computed
pairs.
Expand the allowlist in setup_revisions() to also accept --raw,
--name-only, --name-status, and --summary. Diff stat formats
(--stat, --numstat, --shortstat, --dirstat) remain blocked because
they call compute_diffstat() on full blob content and would show
whole-file statistics rather than range-scoped ones.

Now that -L output flows through the standard diff pipeline,
document that patch formatting options like --word-diff,
--color-moved, --no-prefix, whitespace handling (-w, -b),
and pickaxe options (-S, -G) are supported.

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.

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.
