While we provide a couple of subcommands in git-reflog(1) to remove
reflog entries, we don't provide any to write new entries. Obviously
this is not an operation that really would be needed for many use cases
out there, or otherwise people would have complained that such a command
does not exist yet. But the introduction of the "reftable" backend
changes the picture a bit, as it is now basically impossible to manually
append a reflog entry if one wanted to do so due to the binary format.
Plug this gap by introducing a simple "write" subcommand. For now, all
this command does is to append a single new reflog entry with the given
object IDs and message to the reflog. More specifically, it is not yet
possible to:
- Write multiple reflog entries at once.
- Insert reflog entries at arbitrary indices.
- Specify the date of the reflog entry.
- Insert reflog entries that refer to nonexistent objects.
If required, those features can be added at a future point in time. For
now though, the new command aims to fulfill the most basic use cases
while being as strict as possible when it comes to verifying parameters.

The way subcommands of git-reflog(1) are laid out does not make any
immediate sense. Reorder them such that read-only subcommands precede
writing commands for a bit more structure.
Furthermore, move the "expire" subcommand last. This prepares for a
subsequent change where we are about to introduce a new "write" command
to append reflog entries. Like this, the writing subcommands are ordered
such that those affecting a single reflog come before those spanning
across all reflogs.

With 974cdca345c (doc: introduce a synopsis typesetting, 2024-09-24) we
have introduced a new synopsis type that simplifies the rules for
typesetting a command's synopsis. Convert the git-reflog(1)
documentation to use it.
While at it, convert the list of options to use backticks. This is done
to appease an upcoming new linter that mandates the use of backticks
when using the synopsis type.

The tilde (~) count doesn’t match the length of the heading. In turn
you get a bunch of `<sub>~</sub>` instead of the intended `<h3>` in the
HTML output.

While 'git-reflog(1)' currently allows users to expire reflogs and
delete individual entries, it lacks functionality to completely remove
reflogs for specific references. This becomes problematic in
repositories where reflogs are not needed but continue to accumulate
entries despite setting 'core.logAllRefUpdates=false'.
Add a new 'drop' subcommand to git-reflog that allows users to delete
the entire reflog for a specified reference. Include an '--all' flag to
enable dropping all reflogs from all worktrees and an addon flag
'--single-worktree', to only drop all reflogs from the current worktree.
While here, remove an extraneous newline in the file.

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.
