For SMTP servers that do "mutual certificate verification", the mail
client is required to present its own TLS certificate as well. This
patch adds --smtp-ssl-client-cert and --smtp-ssl-client-key for such
servers.
The problem of which private key for the certificate is chosen arises
when there are private keys in both the certificate and private key
file. According to the documentation of IO::Socket::SSL(link supplied),
the behaviour(the private key chosen) depends on the format of the
certificate. In a nutshell,
- PKCS12: the key in the cert always takes the precedence
- PEM: if the key file is not given, it will "try" to read one
from the cert PEM file
Many users may find this discrepancy unintuitive.
In terms of client certificate, git-send-email is implemented in a way
that what's possible with perl's SSL library is exposed to the user as
much as possible. In this instance, the user may choose to use a PEM
file that contains both certificate and private key should be
at their discretion despite the implications.

`git imap-send` was built on the idea of copying emails to an IMAP folder
like drafts, and sending them later using an email client. Currently
the only way to do it is by piping output of `git format-patch` to IMAP
send.
Add another way to do it by using `git send-email` with the
`--use-imap-only` or `sendmail.useImapOnly` option. This allows users to
use the advanced features of `git send-email` like tweaking Cc: list
programmatically, compose the cover letter, etc. and then send the well
formatted emails to an IMAP folder using `git imap-send`.
While at it, use `` instead of '' for --smtp-encryption ssl in help
section of `git send-email`.

Some email providers like Apple iCloud Mail do not support sending a copy
of sent emails to the "Sent" folder if SMTP server is used. As a
workaround, various email clients like Thunderbird which rely on SMTP,
use IMAP to send a copy of sent emails to the "Sent" folder. Something
similar can be done if sending emails via `git send-email`, by using
the `git imap-send` command to send a copy of the sent email to an IMAP
folder specified by the user.
Add this functionality to `git send-email` by introducing a new
configuration variable `sendemail.imapfolder` and command line option
`--imap-folder` which specifies the IMAP folder to send a copy of the
sent emails to. If specified, a copy of the sent emails will be sent
by piping the emails to `git imap-send` command, after all emails are
sent via SMTP and the SMTP server has been closed.

The documentation for command line option `--outlook-id-fix` is there in
the sendemail documentation, but the config option `sendemail.outlookidfix`
was missing. Add the same to the documentation.
White at it, also enclose the values `true` and `false` in backticks in
the documentation for `sendemail.mailmap`.

The current documentation for git-send-email had an inconsistent use of
"", ``, and '' for quoting. This commit improves the formatting by
using the same style throughout the documentation. Missing full stops
have also been added at some places.
Finally, the cpan links of necessary perl modules have been added to
make their installation easier.
While at it, the unecessary use of $ with <num> and <int> placeholders
has also been removed.

We presently use the ".txt" extension for our AsciiDoc files. While not
wrong, most editors do not associate this extension with AsciiDoc,
meaning that contributors don't get automatic editor functionality that
could be useful, such as syntax highlighting and prose linting.
It is much more common to use the ".adoc" extension for AsciiDoc files,
since this helps editors automatically detect files and also allows
various forges to provide rich (HTML-like) rendering. Let's do that
here, renaming all of the files and updating the includes where
relevant. Adjust the various build scripts and makefiles to use the new
extension as well.
Note that this should not result in any user-visible changes to the
documentation.
