Doc lint updates to encourage the newer and easier-to-use
`synopsis` format, with fixes to a handful of existing uses.
* ja/doc-lint-sections-and-synopsis:
doc lint: check that synopsis manpages have synopsis inlines
doc:git-for-each-ref: fix styling and typos
doc: check for absence of the form --[no-]parameter
doc: check for absence of multiple terms in each entry of desc list
doc: check well-formedness of delimited sections
doc: test linkgit macros for well-formedness
Having an empty line before each delimited sections is not required by
asciidoc, but it is a safety measure that prevents generating malformed
asciidoc when generating translated documentation.
When a delimited section appears just after a paragraph, the asciidoc
processor checks that the length of the delimited section header is
different from the length of the paragraph. If it is not, the asciidoc
processor will generate a title. In the original English documentation, this
is not a problem because the authors always check the output of the asciidoc
processor and fix the length of the delimited section header if it turns out
to be the same as the paragraph length. However, this is not the case for
translations, where the authors have no way to check the length of the
delimited section header or the output of the asciidoc processor. This can
lead to a section title that is not intended.
Indeed, this test also checks that titles are correctly formed, that is,
the length of the underline is equal to the length of the title (otherwise
it would not be a title but a section header).
Finally, this test checks that the delimited section are terminated within
the same file.
