Jean-Noël Avila ed26022094 doc: check for absence of multiple terms in each entry of desc list
For simplifying automated translation of the documentation, it is better to
only present one term in each entry of a description list of options. This
is because most of these terms can automatically be marked as
notranslatable.

Also, due to portability issues, the script generate-configlist.sh can no
longer insert newlines in the output. However, the result is that it no
longer correctly handles multiple terms in a single entry of definition
lists.

As a result, we now check that these entries do not exist in the
documentation.

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.
