Inline adoc files when they are included exactly once. Also fix language tags because this inlining gives us better information on what language the code is written in.

== Why is this an issue?
|
|
|
|
When ``++java.io.File#delete++`` fails, this ``++boolean++`` method simply returns ``++false++`` with no indication of the cause. On the other hand, when ``++java.nio.file.Files#delete++`` fails, this ``++void++`` method returns one of a series of exception types to better indicate the cause of the failure. And since more information is generally better in a debugging situation, ``++java.nio.file.Files#delete++`` is the preferred option.
