[PATCH 1/8] doc: fix misrendering due to `single quote'

AsciiDoc misparses some text that contains a `literal` word followed by a fancy `single quote' word, and treats everything from the start of the literal to the end of the quote as a single-quoted phrase.

We can work around this by switching the latter to be a literal, as well. In the first case, this is perhaps what was intended anyway, as it makes us consistent with the the earlier literals in the same paragraph. In the second, the output is arguably better, as we will format our commit references as <code> blocks.
