Inline adoc when include has no additional value (#1940)
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?
The purpose of an abstract class is to provide some heritable behaviors while also defining methods which must be implemented by sub-classes.
A ``++class++`` with no abstract methods that was made ``++abstract++`` purely to prevent instantiation should be converted to a concrete ``++class++`` (i.e. remove the ``++abstract++`` keyword) with a ``++protected++`` constructor.
A ``++class++`` with only ``++abstract++`` methods and no inheritable behavior should be converted to an ``++interface++``.
=== Noncompliant code example
[source,csharp]
----
public abstract class Animal //Noncompliant; should be an interface
{
abstract void Move();
abstract void Feed();
}
public abstract class Color //Noncompliant; should be concrete with a protected constructor
{
private int red = 0;
private int green = 0;
private int blue = 0;
public int GetRed()
{
return red;
}
}
----
=== Compliant solution
[source,csharp]
----
public interface Animal
{
void Move();
void Feed();
}
public class Color
{
private int red = 0;
private int green = 0;
private int blue = 0;
protected Color()
{}
public int GetRed()
{
return red;
}
}
public abstract class Lamp
{
private bool switchLamp = false;
public abstract void Glow();
public void FlipSwitch()
{
switchLamp = !switchLamp;
if (switchLamp)
{
Glow();
}
}
}
