[PATCH v2 1/3] Documentation: remove use of whitelist

["Derrick Stolee via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Derrick Stolee <derrickstolee@github.com>

The word "whitelist" has cultural implications that are not inclusive.
Thankfully, it is not difficult to reword and avoid its use.

Remove uses of "whitelist" in the Documentation/ directory. In all
cases, we can rewrite the sentences to add clarity instead of relying on
the reader understanding this term.

The most substantial change is to git-daemon.txt which had several uses,
but we can refer to the input directories as a list of included
directories, making the descriptions slightly simpler.
