6ecc641d08 doc: prepare for commonmark
We are still using Pandoc’s Markdown parser, which differs from CommonMark spec slightly.

Notably:
- Line breaks in lists behave differently.
- Admonitions do not support the simpler syntax https://github.com/jgm/commonmark-hs/issues/75
- The auto_identifiers uses a different algorithm – I made the previous ones explicit.
- Languages (classes) of code blocks cannot contain whitespace so we have to use “pycon” alias instead of Python “console” as GitHub’s linguist

While at it, I also fixed the following issues:
- ShellSesssion was used
- Removed some pointless docbook tags.

49bd30eb33 Add the -a param to the docs
The patch utility does not understand git formatted patches.
For text files, there is no problem, but binary files use the
git format.

The -a param makes git diff put binary files into the patch in
raw format that can be understood by the patch tool.
