Backports the following commits to 6.4:

GitHub's asciidoc parser handles `*` characters fine but markdown thinks its italicizing unless you escape the first asterisk. Subsequent asterisks on the same line can stay unescaped and should work fine.

LGTM
Btw. backports normally don't need to be reviewed if they are very similar/identical to the original PR.

@sqren gotcha re: backport reviews

Closing this since we know this doesn't actually fix the issue now, will wait for real fix (which is to just use literal * despite GitHub formatting those as bold, our asciidoc parse/compiler renders them as asterisks)
