03a353bb97 doc: check for absence of the form --[no-]parameter
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`.

70b128c576 midx docs: clarify tie breaking
Clarify what happens when an object exists in more than one pack, but
not in the preferred pack. "git multi-pack-index repack" relies on ties
for objects that are not in the preferred pack being resolved in favor
of the newest pack that contains a copy of the object. If ties were
resolved in favor of the oldest pack as the current documentation
suggests the multi-pack index would not reference any of the objects in
the pack created by "git multi-pack-index repack".

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.
