See #470
* Based on existing support for reStructuredText files
* Handles content files with extensions `.asciidoc` and `.ad`
* Pipes content through `asciidoctor --safe -`.
If `asciidoctor` is not installed, then `asciidoc --safe -`.
* To make sure `asciidoctor` or `asciidoc` is found, after adding
a piece of AsciiDoc content, run `hugo` with the `-v` flag
and look for this message:
INFO: 2015/01/23 Rendering with /usr/bin/asciidoctor ...
Caveats:
* The final "Last updated" timestamp is currently not stripped.
* When `hugo` is run with `-v`, you may see a lot of these messages
INFO: 2015/01/23 Rendering with /usr/bin/asciidoctor ...
if you have lots of `*.ad`, `*.adoc` or `*.asciidoc` files.
* Some versions of `asciidoc` may have trouble with its safe mode.
To test if you are affected, try this:
$ echo "Hello" | asciidoc --safe -
asciidoc: ERROR: unsafe: ifeval invalid
asciidoc: FAILED: ifeval invalid safe document
If so, I recommend that you install `asciidoctor` instead.
Feedback and patches welcome!
Ideally, we should be using https://github.com/VonC/asciidocgo,
@VonC's wonderful Go implementation of Asciidoctor. However,
there is still a bit of work needed for asciidocgo to expose
its API so that Hugo can actually use it.
Until then, hope this "experimental AsciiDoc support through external
helpers" can serve as a stopgap solution for our community. :-)

(Experimental) reStructuredText support was working in v0.12,
but was no longer handled after some refactoring in v0.13-DEV.
That experimental support is now restored.
Furthermore, check for both rst2html and rst2html.py in the PATH,
and execute whichever is found.
See #472 for more information.
