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?
|
|
|
|
Classes without ``++public static++`` members cannot be used without being instantiated, but classes with only ``++private++`` constructors cannot be instantiated. When a class has only ``++private++`` constructors and no ``++static++`` members, it is useless and should be removed or refactored.
