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?
String data types (``++char++``, ``++varchar++``, ``++nchar++``, ``++nvarchar++``) default to a size of 1 if no size is specified in the declaration. For ``++char++`` and ``++nchar++`` this is confusing at best, but it is most probably a mistake for ``++varchar++`` and ``++nvarchar++``.
This rule raises an issue when no size is specified for ``++varchar++`` or ``++nvarchar++``.

\[~ann.campbell.2] I don't think the rule should cover ``++char++`` and ``++nchar++``. I think it would be quite noisy.
