Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 5db921054e docs: move protocol-related docs to man section 5
Continue the move of existing Documentation/technical/* protocol and
file-format documentation into our main documentation space. By moving
the things that discuss the protocol we can properly link from
e.g. lsrefs.unborn and protocol.version documentation to a manpage we
build by default.

So far we have been using the "gitformat-" prefix for the
documentation we've been moving over from Documentation/technical/*,
but for protocol documentation let's use "gitprotocol-*".

lsrefs.unborn::
May be "advertise" (the default), "allow", or "ignore". If "advertise",
the server will respond to the client sending "unborn" (as described in
linkgit:gitprotocol-v2[5]) and will advertise support for this feature during the
protocol v2 capability advertisement. "allow" is the same as
"advertise" except that the server will not advertise support for this
feature; this is useful for load-balanced servers that cannot be
updated atomically (for example), since the administrator could
configure "allow", then after a delay, configure "advertise".
