The standard for command documentation synopses appears to be:
[...] means optional
<...> means replaceable
[<...>] means both optional and replaceable
So fix a number of doc pages that use incorrect variations of the
above.

There are a handful of incorrect "linkgit:<page>[<section>]"
instances in our documentation set.
* Some have an extra colon after "linkgit:"; fix them by removing
the extra colon;
* Some refer to a page outside the Git suite, namely curl(1); fix
them by using the `curl(1)` that already appears on the same page
for the same purpose of referring the readers to its manual page.
* Some spell the name of the page incorrectly, e.g. "rev-list" when
they mean "git-rev-list"; fix them.
* Some list the manual section incorrectly; fix them to make sure
they match what is at the top of the target of the link.

By default git check-ignore shows only the filenames that will be
ignored, not the pattern that causes their exclusion. Instead of moving
the partial exclude pattern precendence information to the -v option
where it belongs, link to gitignore(5) which describes this more
thoroughly.

The synopsys text and the usage string of subcommands that read list
of things from the standard input are often shown like this:
git gostak [--distim] < <list-of-doshes>
This is problematic in a number of ways:
* The way to use these commands is more often to feed them the
output from another command, not feed them from a file.
* Manual pages outside Git, commands that operate on the data read
from the standard input, e.g "sort", "grep", "sed", etc., are not
described with such a "< redirection-from-file" in their synopsys
text. Our doing so introduces inconsistency.
* We do not insist on where the output should go, by saying
git gostak [--distim] < <list-of-doshes> > <output>
* As it is our convention to enclose placeholders inside <braket>,
the redirection operator followed by a placeholder filename
becomes very hard to read, both in the documentation and in the
help text.
Let's clean them all up, after making sure that the documentation
clearly describes the modes that take information from the standard
input and what kind of things are expected on the input.

This should improve readability. Compare "thislongname" and
"thisLongName". The following keys are left in unchanged. We can
decide what to do with them later.
- am.keepcr
- core.autocrlf .safecrlf .trustctime
- diff.dirstat .noprefix
- gitcvs.usecrlfattr
- gui.blamehistoryctx .trustmtime
- pull.twohead

By default, check-ignore does not list tracked files at all since
they are not subject to ignore patterns.
Make this clearer in the man page.

check-ignore currently shows how .gitignore rules would treat untracked
paths. Tracked paths do not generate useful output. This prevents
debugging of why a path became tracked unexpectedly unless that path is
first removed from the index with `git rm --cached <path>`.
The option --no-index tells the command to bypass the check for the
path being in the index and hence allows tracked paths to be checked
too.
Whilst this behaviour deviates from the characteristics of `git add` and
`git status` its use case is unlikely to cause any user confusion.
Test scripts are augmented to check this option against the standard
ignores to ensure correct behaviour.

check-attr and check-ignore have the potential to deadlock callers
which do not read back the output in real-time. For example, if a
caller writes N paths out and then reads N lines back in, it risks
becoming blocked on write() to check-*, and check-* is blocked on
write back to the caller. Somebody has to buffer; the pipe buffers
provide some leeway, but they are limited.

If `-n` or `--non-matching` are specified, non-matching pathnames will
also be output, in which case all fields in each output record except
for <pathname> will be empty. This can be useful when running
check-ignore as a background process, so that files can be
incrementally streamed to STDIN, and for each of these files, STDOUT
will indicate whether that file matched a pattern or not. (Without
this option, it would be impossible to tell whether the absence of
output for a given file meant that it didn't match any pattern, or
that the result simply hadn't been flushed to STDOUT yet.)

This works in a similar manner to git-check-attr.
