gitglossary documents Git pathspecs. One type of pathspec is the "glob"
pathspec, prefixed with the magic word "glob".
Regarding glob pathspecs, gitglossary says, '"**/foo" matches file or
directory "foo" anywhere, the same as pattern "foo".' That last phrase
('the same as pattern "foo") is incorrect. "**/foo" and "foo" are not
equivalent. "**/foo" matches foo anywhere, but "foo" does not.
This change removes the incorrect phrase from the glob pathspec doc.

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.
