Convert AsciiDoc documentation to Markdown Most of the world, including the Chromium universe, seems to be standardizing on Markdown for documentation. Markdown provides the benefit of automatic rendering on Gitiles (Gerrit), and on GitHub mirrors as well. Crashpad should fit in with its surroundings. There are two quirks that I was unable to resolve. - Markdown does not allow **emphasis** within a ```code fence``` region. In blocks showing interactive examples, the AsciiDoc documentation used this to highlight what the user was expected to type. - Markdown does not have a “definition list” (<dl>). This would have been nice in man pages for the Options and Exit Status sections. In its place, I used unnumbered lists. This is a little ugly, but it’s not the end of the world. The new Markdown-formatted documentation is largely identical to the AsciiDoc that it replaces. Minor editorial revisions were made. References to Mac OS X now mention macOS, and tool man pages describing tools that that access task ports now mention System Integrity Protection (SIP). The AppEngine-based https://crashpad.chromium.org/ app in doc/appengine is still necessary to serve Doxygen-generated documentation. This app is updated to redirect existing generated-HTML URLs to Gitiles’ automatic Markdown rendering. Scripts in doc/support are updated to adapt to this change. All AsciiDoc support files in doc/support have been removed.
