828197de8f docs: adjust for the recent rename of pu to seen
As of "What's cooking in git.git (Jun 2020, #04; Mon, 22)", there is no
longer any `pu` branch, but a `seen` branch.

While we technically do not even need to update the manual pages, it
makes sense to update them because they clearly talk about branches in
git.git.

Please note that in two instances, this patch not only updates the
branch name, but also the description "(proposed updates)".

Where appropriate, quotes have been added for readability.

80f537f79c doc: promote "git restore"
The new command "git restore" (together with "git switch") are added
to avoid the confusion of one-command-do-all "git checkout" for new
users. They are also helpful to avoid ambiguous context.

For these reasons, promote it everywhere possible. This includes
documentation, suggestions/advice from other commands.

One nice thing about git-restore is the ability to restore
"everything", so it can be used in "git status" advice instead of both
"git checkout" and "git reset".  The three commands suggested by "git
status" are add, rm and restore.

"git checkout" is also removed from "git help" (i.e. it's no longer
considered a commonly used command)

328c6cb853 doc: promote "git switch"
The new command "git switch" is added to avoid the confusion of
one-command-do-all "git checkout" for new users. They are also helpful
to avoid ambiguation context.

For these reasons, promote it everywhere possible. This includes
documentation, suggestions/advice from other commands...

The "Checking out files" progress line in unpack-trees.c is also updated
to "Updating files" to be neutral to both git-checkout and git-switch.

9574901c02 giteveryday: unbreak rendering with AsciiDoctor
The "giteveryday" document has a callout list that contains a code
block. This is not a problem for AsciiDoc, but AsciiDoctor sadly was
explicitly designed *not* to render this correctly [*1*]. The symptom is
an unhelpful

	line 322: callout list item index: expected 1 got 12
	line 325: no callouts refer to list item 1
	line 325: callout list item index: expected 2 got 13
	line 327: no callouts refer to list item 2

In Git for Windows, we rely on the speed improvement of AsciiDoctor (on
this developer's machine, `make -j15 html` takes roughly 30 seconds with
AsciiDoctor, 70 seconds with AsciiDoc), therefore we need a way to
render this correctly.

The easiest way out is to simplify the callout list, as suggested by
AsciiDoctor's author, even while one may very well disagree with him
that a code block hath no place in a callout list.

f3f38c7d9b Documentation/everyday: match undefline with the text
Even though AsciiDoc is more lenient when deciding if an underline
is for the contents on the previous line to find section headers, we
should match the length of them for other formatters to help them.

673151a9bb doc: add 'everyday' to 'git help'
The "Everyday GIT With 20 Commands Or So" is not accessible via the
Git help system.  Move everyday.txt to giteveryday.txt so that "git
help everyday" works, and create a new placeholder file everyday.html
to refer people who follow existing URLs to the updated location.

giteveryday.txt now formats well with AsciiDoc as a man page and
refreshed content to a more command modern style.

Add 'everyday' to the help --guides list and update git(1) and 5
other links to giteveryday.
