Just FYI, here is what I ended up with.  I do not think this is
about "modern" vs "old style"; it is more about using the more
appropriate mark-up and our desire has always been to use `literal`
for things that users need to type literally.

I notice that I didn't remove 'modern' from the title in the versoin
below, though.

Thanks.

    doc: use modern "`<literal>`"-style quoting for literal strings
    
    "'<string>'"-style quoting is not appropriate when quoting literal
    strings in the "Documentation/" subtree.
    
    In preparation for adding additional information to this section of
    git-for-each-ref(1)'s documentation, update them to use "`<literal>`"
    instead.
