We already note that we may produce invalid output when we skip calling
iconv() altogether. But we may also do so if iconv() fails, and we have
no good alternative. Let's document this to avoid surprising users.

This reverts commit fd680bc5 (logmsg_reencode(): warn when iconv()
fails, 2021-08-27). Throwing a warning for each and every commit
that gets reencoded, without allowing a way to squelch, would make
it unpleasant for folks who have to deal with an ancient part of the
history in an old project that used wrong encoding in the commits.

Add an "and" to separate the two halves of the first sentence of the
paragraph more. Add a comma to similarly separate the two halves of the
second sentence a bit better. Add a period at the end of the paragraph.
Further down in the file, add the missing "be" in "must be accompanied".

Since 8650c6298c (doc lint: make "lint-docs" non-.PHONY, 2021-10-15), we
put the output for gitlink linter into .build/lint-docs/gitlink. There
are order-only dependencies to create the sequence of subdirs like:
.build/lint-docs: | .build
$(QUIET)mkdir $@
.build/lint-docs/gitlink: | .build/lint-docs
$(QUIET)mkdir $@
where each level has to depend on the prior one (since the parent
directory must exist for us to create something inside it). But the
"howto" and "config" subdirectories of gitlink have the wrong
dependency; they depend on "lint-docs", not "lint-docs/gitlink".
This usually works out, because the LINT_DOCS_GITLINK targets which
depend on "gitlink/howto" also depend on just "gitlink", so the
directory gets created anyway. But since we haven't given make an
explicit ordering, things can racily happen out of order.
If you stick a "sleep 1" in the rule to build "gitlink" like this:
## Lint: gitlink
.build/lint-docs/gitlink: | .build/lint-docs
- $(QUIET)mkdir $@
+ $(QUIET)sleep 1 && mkdir $@
then "make clean; make lint-docs" will fail reliably. Or you can see it
as-is just by building the directory in isolation:
$ make clean
[...]
$ make .build/lint-docs/gitlink/howto
GEN mergetools-list.made
GEN cmd-list.made
GEN doc.dep
SUBDIR ../
make[1]: 'GIT-VERSION-FILE' is up to date.
SUBDIR ../
make[1]: 'GIT-VERSION-FILE' is up to date.
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘.build/lint-docs/gitlink/howto’: No such file or directory
make: *** [Makefile:476: .build/lint-docs/gitlink/howto] Error 1
The fix is easy: we just need to depend on the correct parent directory.

We prefer "directory" over "folder" when discussing the file system

"git cat-file --batch" with the "--batch-all-objects" option is

Speed up the "lint-docs" target by making it non-.PHONY. Similar to my
c234e8a0ecf (Makefile: make the "sparse" target non-.PHONY,
2021-09-23). We'll now create empty files corresponding to a
dependency graph for each of these lint scripts.
This speeds things up a bit[1], and makes the output correspond to any
in-tree changes we have:
$ touch git-add.txt; make lint-docs; make lint-docs
GEN cmd-list.made
GEN doc.dep
LINT GITLINK git-add.txt
LINT MAN END git-add.txt
LINT MAN SEC git-add.txt
make: Nothing to be done for 'lint-docs'.
As with the "sparse" target changes this has a hard dependency on the
use of ".DELETE_ON_ERROR" in the Makefile, added here in
db10fc6c09f (doc: simplify Makefile using .DELETE_ON_ERROR,
2021-05-21). This method also depends on the output for us emitting
any errors on STDERR (fixed in a preceding commit), as well us these
scripts exiting with non-zero on any errors (which they were already
doing).

Extend the trick we use to speed up the "clean" target to also extend
to the "lint-docs" target. See 54df87555b1 (Documentation/Makefile:
conditionally include doc.dep, 2020-12-08) for the "clean"
implementation.
The "doc-lint" target only depends on *.txt files, so we don't need to
generate GIT-VERSION-FILE etc. if that's all we're doing. This makes
the "make lint-docs" target more than 2x as fast:
$ git show HEAD~:Documentation/Makefile >Makefile.old
$ hyperfine -L f ",.old" 'make -f Makefile{f} lint-docs'

Have all of the scripts invoked by "make check-docs" emit their output

Fix the broken "make lint-docs" (or "make check-docs" at the
top-level) target, which has been broken since my cafd9828e89 (doc
lint: lint and fix missing "GIT" end sections, 2021-04-09).
The CI for "seen" is emitting an error about a broken gitlink, but due
to there being 3x scripts chained via ";" instead of "&&" we're not
carrying forward the non-zero exit code.

A signature attached to a signed commit, and the contents of the
commit that merged a signed tag, are both recorded as a value of an
object header field as a multi-line value, and are subject to the
formatting convention for multi-line values in the headers, with a
leading SP signaling that the rest of the line is a continuation of
the previous line. Most notably, an empty line in such a multi-line
value would result in a line with a sole SP on it.
Examples in the signature-format technical documentation include a
few of these cases but we did not show these otherwise invisible SPs
in the example. These trailing spaces cannot be seen on display or
on paper, and forces the readers to look for them in their editors
or pagers, even if we added them to the document.
Extend the overview section to explain the multi-line value
formatting and highlight these otherwise invisible SPs by inventing
the "a dollar-sign at the end of line that appears after SP merely
signals that there is a SP there, and the dollar-sign itself does
not appear in the real file" notation, inspired by "cat -e" output,
to help readers to learn exactly where such "a single SP that is
originally an empty line" appears in the examples.
