When switching branches with "git checkout -m", the attempted merge
of local modifications may cause conflicts with the changes made on
the other branch, which the user may not want to (or may not be able
to) resolve right now. Because there is no easy way to recover from
this situation, we discouraged users from using "checkout -m" unless
they are certain their changes are trivial and within their ability
to resolve conflicts.
Teach the -m flow to create a temporary stash before switching and
reapply it after. On success, the stash is silently applied and
the list of locally modified paths is shown, same as a successful
"git checkout" without "-m".
If reapplying causes conflicts, the stash is kept and the user is
told they can resolve and run "git stash drop", or run "git reset
--hard" and later "git stash pop" to recover their changes.

In 4e43b7ff (Declare both git-switch and git-restore experimental,
2019-04-25), the newly introduced git-switch(1) and git-restore(1)
commands were marked as experimental. This was done to provide time to
make breaking changes to the interface. It has now been over six years
since these commands were implemented and there hasn't been much change.
Consequently, users have grown to rely on how these commands work and it
is no longer feasible to make any breaking changes.
Let's remove the experimental label for git-switch(1) and
git-restore(1).

- Switch the synopsis to a synopsis block which will automatically
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.
