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 a method is designed to return an invariant value, it may be poor design, but it shouldn't adversely affect the outcome of your program. However, when it happens on all paths through the logic, it is surely a bug.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This rule raises an issue when a method contains several ``++return++`` statements that all return the same value.
