[PATCH] Documentation: replace [^~] with escapes everywhere

[Thomas Rast <trast@student.ethz.ch>]

Replaces all ^ and ~ that are not part of a "literal" paragraph with
{caret} and {tilde}.

Tildes and carets are ordinarily used for ~sub~ and ^super^scripts.
This only triggers if a suitable chunk of text is found within the
current paragraph, so in most cases nothing happens (and the
tilde/caret is taken literally).  However, it is a pitfall for anyone
who later adds more text to the same paragraph, so we might as well do
it right.
