Makefile-based builds can configure Git's internal HTML_PATH by defining
htmldir, which is useful for packagers that put documentation in
different locations. Gentoo, for example, uses version-suffixed
directories like ${prefix}/share/doc/git-2.51 and puts the HTML
documentation in an 'html' subdirectory of the same.
Propagate the same configuration knob to Meson-based builds so that
"git --html-path" on such systems can be configured to output the
correct directory.

Commit 5040f9f164 ("doc: add technical design doc for large object
promisors", 2025-02-18) added the large object promisors document
as a technical document (with a '.txt' extension). The merge commit
2c6fd30198 ("Merge branch 'cc/lop-remote'", 2025-03-05) seems to
have renamed the file with an '.adoc' extension.
Despite the '.adoc' extension, this document was not being formatted
by asciidoc(tor) as part of the docs build. In order to do so, add
the document to the make and meson build files.
Having added the document to the build, asciidoc and asciidoctor find
(slightly different) problems with the syntax of the input document.
The first set of warnings (only issued by asciidoc) relate to some
'section title out of sequence: expected level 3, got level 4'. This
document uses 'setext' style of section headers, using a series of
underline characters, where the character used denotes the level of
the title. From document title to level 5 (see [1]), these characters
are =, -, ~, ^, +. This does not seem to fit the error message, which
implies that those characters denote levels 0 -> 4. Replacing the headings
underlined with '+' by the '^' character eliminates these warnings.
The second set of warnings (only issued by asciidoctor) relate to some
headings which seem to use both arabic and roman numerals as part of
a single 'list' sequence. This elicited either 'unterminated listing
block' or (for example) 'list item index: expected I, got II' warnings.
In order not to mix arabic and roman numerals, remove the numeral from
the '0) Non goals' heading. Similarly, the remaining roman numeral
entries had the ')' removed and turned into regular headings with I, II,
III ... at the beginning.

Meson does not currently provide a target to compile documentation,
only. Instead, users needs to compile the whole project, which may be
way more than they really intend to do.
Introduce a new "docs" alias to plug this gap. This alias can be invoked
e.g. with `meson compile docs`.

When our asciidoc files were renamed from "*.txt" to "*.adoc" in
1f010d6bdf7 (doc: use .adoc extension for AsciiDoc files, 2025-01-20)
the "meson.build" file in "Documentation" was updated but the
"meson.build" files in the "technical" and "howto" subdirectories were
not. This causes the meson build to fail when configured with
-Ddocs=html. Fix this by updating the relevant "meson.build" files.

We need an explicit `depends: documentation_deps` so that all of our
Documentation targets know they require asciidoc.conf. This shows up
as parallel build failures with it not yet being available.
Other targets look OK already.

While the Meson build system already knows to generate man pages and our
user manual, it does not yet generate the random assortment of articles
that we have. Plug this gap.
