The http-protocol.txt spec fails to mention that a flush packet
comes in the smart server response after sending the "service"
header.
Technically the client code is actually ready to receive an
arbitrary number of headers here, but since we haven't
introduced any other headers in the past decade (and the
client would just throw them away), let's not mention it in
the spec.
This fixes both BNF and the example. While we're fixing the
latter, let's also add the missing flush after the ref list.

With uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant configuration option set on the
server side, "git fetch" can make a request with a "want" line that names
an object that has not been advertised (likely to have been obtained out
of band or from a submodule pointer). Only objects reachable from the
branch tips, i.e. the union of advertised branches and branches hidden by
transfer.hideRefs, will be processed. Note that there is an associated
cost of having to walk back the history to check the reachability.
This feature can be used when obtaining the content of a certain commit,
for which the sha1 is known, without the need of cloning the whole
repository, especially if a shallow fetch is used. Useful cases are e.g.
repositories containing large files in the history, fetching only the
needed data for a submodule checkout, when sharing a sha1 without telling
which exact branch it belongs to and in Gerrit, if you think in terms of
commits instead of change numbers. (The Gerrit case has already been
solved through allowTipSHA1InWant as every Gerrit change has a ref.)

Turns out that putting 'link:' before the 'http' is actually superfluous
in AsciiDoc, as there's already a predefined macro to handle it.
"http, https, [etc] URLs are rendered using predefined inline macros."
http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/userguide.html#_urls
"Hypertext links to files on the local file system are specified
using the link inline macro."
http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/userguide.html#_linking_to_local_documents
Despite being superfluous, the reference implementation of AsciiDoc
tolerates the extra 'link:' and silently removes it, giving a functioning
link in the generated HTML. However, AsciiDoctor (the Ruby implementation
of AsciiDoc used to render the http://git-scm.com/ site) does /not/ have
this behaviour, and so generates broken links, as can be seen here:
http://git-scm.com/docs/git-cvsimport (links to cvs2git & parsecvs)
http://git-scm.com/docs/git-filter-branch (link to The BFG)
It's worth noting that after this change, the html generated by 'make html'
in the git project is identical, and all links still work.

./Documentation/technical/http-protocol.txt was missing from TECH_DOCS in Makefile.
Add it and also improve HTML formatting while still retaining good readability of the ASCII text:
- Use monospace font instead of italicized or roman font for machine output and source text
- Use roman font for things which should be body text
- Use double quotes consistently for "want" and "have" commands
- Use uppercase "C" / "S" consistently for "client" / "server";
also use "C:" / "S:" instead of "(C)" / "(S)" for consistency and
to avoid having formatted "(C)" as copyright symbol in HTML
- Use only spaces and not a combination of tabs and spaces for whitespace

AsciiDoc's "link" is supposed to create hyperlinks for HTML output, so
prefer a "link" to point to an HTML file instead of a text file if an HTML
version of the file is being generated. For RelNotes, keep pointing to
text files as no equivalent HTML files are generated.
If appropriate, also update the link description to not contain the linked
file's extension.
