There has a been a lot work and research put to make the best quickstart
possible, it should be advertised more prominently.
Bug: T348899
Change-Id: I1de26d9a1969476afbeb81a5951f24458152e19d
* Match the other doc files we maintain in Git under docs/ and
for individual components, as well as all inline docs for PHP
and JS documentation render as Markdown via JSDoc/JSDuck/Doxygen.
This was currently the only prominent 'wikitext'-ish
documentation file.
Although the only wikitext-speficic syntax here was the heading.
* The current README was not shown at all in Gitiles as it requires
the README to have a file extension, and it does not support
'.mediawiki'.
Follows-up c0342da8e9.

This file is parsed in the web installer, which doesn't
understand markdown - it uses the MediaWiki parser.
This reverts commit c0342da8e9.
Bug: T196607
Change-Id: If35f0212dafa80afe59c019ab25b875cd0977fc8
The only wikitext-speficic syntax in here is the title.
Renaming this to Markdown has various benefits:
* Makes the README render properly on Gitiles, Doxygen, and Diffusion.
The current README is not renderable in Gitiles or Doxygen.
* More familiar to new contributors in open-source.
* Consistent with other documentation content we maintain within Git,
including all PHP and JS documentation, which via JSDoc/JSDuck/Doxygen
have all their descriptions parsed in Markdown.
* Rich previews and syntax highlighting in many text editors
and Git viewers.
