Some future breaking changes would remove certain parts of the
default repository, which were still described even when the
documents were built for the future with WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES.
* pw/repo-layout-doc-update:
docs: fix repository-layout when building with breaking changes
Meson-based build procedure forgot to build some docs, which has
been corrected.
* pw/build-meson-technical-and-howto-docs:
meson: fix building technical and howto docs
Since commit 8ccc75c245 (remote: announce removal of "branches/" and
"remotes/", 2025-01-22) enabling WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES when building git
removes support for reading branches from ".git/branches" and remotes
from ".git/remotes". However those locations are still documented in
gitrepository-layout.adoc even though the build does not support them.
Rectify this by adding a new document attribute "with-breaking-changes"
and use it to make the inclusion of those sections of the documentation
conditional. Note that the name of the attribute does not match the test
prerequisite WITHOUT_BREAKING_CHANGES added in c5bc9a7f94 (Makefile:
wire up build option for deprecated features, 2025-01-22). This is to
avoid the awkward double negative ifndef::without_breaking_changes for
documentation that should be included when WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES is
enabled. The test prerequisite will be renamed to match the
documentation attribute in a future patch series.

The point behind a compile-time switch is to ensure that we have a
mechanism to hide myriad of backward incompatible changes that may
be prepared and accumulated over time, yet make them available for
testing any time during the development toward the big version
boundary. Add a few words to stress that point.
Since the document was first written, we have added the CI job that
the document anticipated us to have. Rephrase to state the current
status.
The discussion in [*1*] made us abandon the "feature.git3" based
runtime switching of behaviour and instead adopt the compile-time
switching mechanism, but a stray sentence about runtime switching
still remained in the final text by mistake. Remove it.

Let's add a design doc about how we could improve handling liarge blobs
using "Large Object Promisors" (LOPs). It's a set of features with the
goal of using special dedicated promisor remotes to store large blobs,
and having them accessed directly by main remotes and clients.

When our asciidoc files were renamed from "*.txt" to "*.adoc" in

the "meson.build" file in "Documentation" was updated but the

not. This causes the meson build to fail when configured with
-Ddocs=html. Fix this by updating the relevant "meson.build" files.

The calls to `find_program()` in our documentation don't use our custom
program path. This variable gets populated on Windows with the location
of Git for Windows so that we can use it to provide our build tools.
Consequently, we may not be able to find all necessary binaries on
Windows.
Adapt the calls to use the program path to fix this. While at it, drop
`required: true` arguments, which are the default anyway.

We're assigning the `git` variable in three places:
- In "meson.build" to store the external Git executable.
- In "meson.build" to store the compiled Git executable.
- In "Documentation/meson.build" to store the external Git executable,
a second time.
The last case is only needed because we overwrite the original variable
with the built version. Rename the variable used for the built Git
executable so that we don't have to resolve the external Git executable
multiple times.

Submodule merges are, in general, similar to other merges based on oid
three-way-merge. When a conflict happens, however, Git has two special
cases (introduced in 68d03e4a6e) on handling the conflict before
yielding it to the user. From the merge-ort and merge-recursive sources:
- "Case #1: a is contained in b or vice versa": both strategies try to
perform a fast-forward in the submodules if the commit referred by the
conflicted submodule is descendant of another;
- "Case #2: There are one or more merges that contain a and b in the
submodule. If there is only one, then present it as a suggestion to the
user, but leave it marked unmerged so the user needs to confirm the
resolution."
Add a small paragraph on merge-strategies.adoc describing this behavior.
