cca73e4946 docs: Correct the release date of 5.2 stable
A table lists the 5.2 stable release date as September 15, but it was
released on July 7. This may confuse a reader who is trying to
understand the stable update release cycle.

e7b4311ebc Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: Documentation/process
Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
  If not .svg:
    For each line:
      If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
        For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
          If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
          return 200 OK and serve the same content:
            Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

fb0e0ffe7f Documentation: bring process docs up to date
The guide to the kernel dev process documentation, for example, contains
references to older kernels and their timelines. In addition, one of the
"long term support kernels" listed have since reached EOL, and a new one
has been named. This patch brings information/tables up to date.

Additionally, some very trivial grammatical errors, unclear sentences,
and potentially unsavory diction have been edited.

8962e40c19 docs: update kernel versions and dates in tables
Every once in a while, we should update the examples
to reflect more recent kernel versions.

Update the tables describing kernel releases, the merge window,
and current longterm maintained kernel, from 2.6-era kernels
to 4.x.

As we'll type this a lot, after adding CodingStyle & friends,
let's rename the directory name to a shorter one.
