doc: git-checkout: reorganize examples

The examples are an ordered list, however, they are complex enough that
a callout is inside example 1, and that confuses the parsers as the list
continuation (`+`) is unclear (are we continuing the previous list item,
or the previous callout?).

We could use an open block as the asciidoctor documentation suggests,
but that has a tiny formatting issue (a newline is missing).

To simplify things for everyone (the reader, the writer, and the parser)
let's use subsections.

After this change, the HTML documentation generated with asciidoc has
the right indentation.

 If you want to check out _all_ C source files out of the index,
 you can say
-+
+
 ------------
 $ git checkout -- '*.c'
 ------------
-+
+
 Note the quotes around `*.c`.  The file `hello.c` will also be
 checked out, even though it is no longer in the working tree,
 because the file globbing is used to match entries in the index
 (not in the working tree by the shell).

 If you have an unfortunate branch that is named `hello.c`, this
 step would be confused as an instruction to switch to that branch.
 You should instead write:
-+

 $ git checkout -- hello.c

 However, your "wrong" branch and correct `mytopic` branch may
 differ in files that you have modified locally, in which case
 the above checkout would fail like this:
-+
+
 ------------
 $ git checkout mytopic
 error: You have local changes to 'frotz'; not switching branches.

 You can give the `-m` flag to the command, which would try a
 three-way merge:
-+
+
 ------------
 $ git checkout -m mytopic
 Auto-merging frotz

-+

 After this three-way merge, the local modifications are _not_
 registered in your index file, so `git diff` would show you what
 changes you made since the tip of the new branch.

 At this point, `git diff` shows the changes cleanly merged as in

 files.  Edit and resolve the conflict and mark it resolved with
 `git add` as usual:
