47d81b5c7a doc: more consistency in environment variables format
Wrap with backticks (monospaced font) unwrapped or single-quotes wrapped
(italic type) environment variables which are followed by the word
"environment". It was obtained with:

perl -pi -e "s/\'?(\\\$?[0-9A-Z\_]+)\'?(?= environment ?)/\`\1\`/g" *.txt

One of the main purposes is to stick to the CodingGuidelines as possible so
that people writting new documentation by mimicking the existing are more likely
to have it right (even if they didn't read the CodingGuidelines).

be510e0105 Documentation: fix section header mark-up
Asciidoctor is stricter than AsciiDoc when deciding if underlining
is a section title or the start of preformatted text.  Make the
length of the underlining match the text to ensure that it renders
correctly in all implementations.

f745acb028 Documentation: typofixes
In addition to fixing trivial and obvious typos, be careful about
the following points:

 - Spell ASCII, URL and CRC in ALL CAPS;
 - Spell Linux as Capitalized;
 - Do not omit periods in "i.e." and "e.g.".

4fccc0494a Documentation: remove stray backslashes from "Fighting regressions" article
The intended text is "it's O(N * T) vs O(N * T * M)".  Asciidoc
notices the spaces around the asterisks so there is no need to
escape them (and if you try, it passes the backslashes through).

69a9cd31b1 Documentation: add "Fighting regressions with git bisect" article
This patch adds an asciidoc version of the "Fighting regressions with
git bisect" article that the author wrote for the Linux-Kongress
2009 (http://www.linux-kongress.org/2009).

This paper might be interesting to people who want to learn as much as
possible about "git bisect" from a single document.

The slides of the related presentation are available at:

http://www.linux-kongress.org/2009/slides/fighting_regressions_with_git_bisect_christian_couder.pdf

But the Linux Kongress people will not publish this paper online because
they print the papers on their UpTimes magazine
(http://www.lob.de/isbn/978-3-86541-358-1). But they don't take away the
rights of the author (which is very nice), so I have the right to publish
it.
