1854c70bf9 Replace all page contents with links to the new location
This trick was performed via:

  git ls-files \*.md |
  while read f
  do
    pr_url=https://github.com/git-for-windows/git-for-windows.github.io/pull/59
    url=https://gitforwindows.org/${f%.md}
    echo "This wiki page [has been migrated]($pr_url) to a new location: [$url]($url)" >"$f"
  done

There are two pages where this does not make sense, `0.-Index` and
`_Footer`, which will be handled in the next commit.

2ba8cbf8ef wiki: rename git-extra to mingw-w64-git-extra
In a recent commit, we started publishing the mingw-w64-git-extra
package in addition to git-extra. We intend to completely remove the old
git-extra package over time, but let's start using the new
mingw-w64-git-extra prefix now. More background on this change can be
found in the attached commit.

d6dfeccbaf Adjust lightly
The document `Install inside MSYS2 proper` was *slightly* outdated:

- `pacman` now handles core package updates differently

- Git for Windows now signs the Pacman packages uploaded to Git for
  Windows' Pacman repository

- Git for Windows currently requires a custom build of cURL (but it
  makes sense to keep up-to-date by consuming Git for Windows' cURL
  package anyway, because Git for Windows keeps an extra eye out for
  cURL updates)
