Let's see how well the patches 3 and 4 work for other people with
AsciiDoctor and then decide to go in that direction.

I do not forsee that changes to allow our *.txt to be used with
AsciiDoctor interfere with what GitHub folks do with their own
documentation toolchain, but I am not sure how the AsciiDoctor
specific alternative build infrastructure we would eventually ship
would interact with them---maybe they are not affected at all, or
maybe they can even take advantage of it.

Thanks.
