Change the format of our README to ReStructuredText.
Review Request #7759 — Created Nov. 7, 2015 and submitted
Now that we're posting official releases to PyPI, our README is being shown to any users visiting the website. This does not support Markdown, only ReST. In order to show something sane, we need to change the format of our README. Fortunately, GitHub is happy enough with most ReST files. The content of this remains the same, with the addition of Assembly repositories. The transition to ReST is pretty sane. The only thing worth pointing out is that we're using named references for links when it's a proper name for the site we're linking to or otherwise makes sense ("RBTools documentation", etc.), and inline references where it felt more natural.
Looked at the README as rendered HTML. Checked links.
