Jeff King ad3967a5a2 doc: fix unmatched code fences in git-stripspace
The asciidoctor renderer is more picky than classic asciidoc,
and insists that the start and end of a code fence be the
same size.

Found with this hacky perl script:

    foreach my $fn (@ARGV) {
      open(my $fh, '<', $fn);
      my ($fence, $fence_lineno, $prev);
      while (<$fh>) {
        chomp;
        if (/^----+$/) {
          if ($fence_lineno) {
            if ($_ ne $fence) {
              print "$fn:$fence_lineno:mismatched fence: ",
                    length($fence), " != ", length($_), "\n";
            }
            $fence_lineno = undef;
          }
	  # hacky check to avoid title-underlining
          elsif ($prev eq '' || $prev eq '+') {
            $fence = $_;
            $fence_lineno = $.;
          }
        }
        $prev = $_;
      }
    }

git-stripspace(1)
=================
NAME
----
git-stripspace - Remove unnecessary whitespace
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'git stripspace' [-s | --strip-comments] < input
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Clean the input in the manner used by Git for text such as commit
messages, notes, tags and branch descriptions.
With no arguments, this will:
- remove trailing whitespace from all lines
- collapse multiple consecutive empty lines into one empty line
- remove empty lines from the beginning and end of the input
- add a missing '\n' to the last line if necessary.
In the case where the input consists entirely of whitespace characters, no
output will be produced.
*NOTE*: This is intended for cleaning metadata, prefer the `--whitespace=fix`
mode of linkgit:git-apply[1] for correcting whitespace of patches or files in
the repository.
OPTIONS
-------
-s::
--strip-comments::
Skip and remove all lines starting with comment character (default '#').
-c::
--comment-lines::
Prepend comment character and blank to each line. Lines will automatically
be terminated with a newline. On empty lines, only the comment character
will be prepended.
EXAMPLES
--------
Given the following noisy input with '$' indicating the end of a line:
---------
|A brief introduction $
| $
|$
|A new paragraph$
|# with a commented-out line $
|explaining lots of stuff.$
|$
|# An old paragraph, also commented-out. $
| $
|The end.$
| $
---------
Use 'git stripspace' with no arguments to obtain:
---------
|A brief introduction$
|$
|A new paragraph$
|# with a commented-out line$
|explaining lots of stuff.$
|$
|# An old paragraph, also commented-out.$
|$
|The end.$
---------
Use 'git stripspace --strip-comments' to obtain:
