4148581eb2 Unify the markdown links to the NOTES and README files
In many locations, the files have been converted to markdown
syntactically, but don't utilize the power of markdown yet.
Here, instead of just repeating the file name, the markdown link
now shows the title of the document.

Additionally, the notes are now reference in the same order in both
the README and the INSTALL file.

9f1fe6a950 Revise some renamings of NOTES and README files
Some of the notes and readme files have been converted to markdown
format recently and renamed during this process. While adding the
.md extension was a natural step, switching to mixed cases was not
a change to the better, it gives them a ragged appearance:

     NOTES.ANDROID  => NOTES-Android.md
     NOTES.DJGPP    => NOTES-DJGPP.md
     NOTES.PERL     => NOTES-Perl.md
     NOTES.UNIX     => NOTES-Unix.md
     NOTES.VMS      => NOTES-VMS.md
     NOTES.VALGRIND => NOTES-Valgrind.md
     NOTES.WIN      => NOTES-Windows.txt
     README.ENGINE  => README-Engine.md
     README.FIPS    => README-FIPS.md

Moreover, the NOTES-Windows.txt file is the only file which has been
converted to markdown but has received a .txt file extension.
This doesn't make sense, because the OpenSSL users on Windows will
need to read the other markdown documents as well. Since they are
developers, we can trust them to be able to associate their favorite
editor with the .md extension.

In fact, having a comment at the beginning of the file saying that it
is in markdown format but we didn't dare to add the correct extension
in order not to overwhelm our Windows users can be interpreted either
as unintentionally funny or disrespectful ;-)

This commit suggests the following more consistent renaming:

     NOTES.ANDROID  => NOTES-ANDROID.md
     NOTES.DJGPP    => NOTES-DJGPP.md
     NOTES.PERL     => NOTES-PERL.md
     NOTES.UNIX     => NOTES-UNIX.md
     NOTES.VMS      => NOTES-VMS.md
     NOTES.VALGRIND => NOTES-VALGRIND.md
     NOTES.WIN      => NOTES-WINDOWS.md
     README.ENGINE  => README-ENGINES.md
     README.FIPS    => README-FIPS.md

(note the plural in README-ENGINES, anticipating a README-PROVIDERS)

36b778fbb7 README.md: remove incorrect link to openssl.github.io
The link to the OpenSSL Project Pages <openssl.github.io>
actually points to an unfinished draft <mspncp.github.io>.

The original intention of this pet project of mine was to
have a website dedicated to describing the OpenSSL workflow
on GitHub and to answer frequently asked questions related
to pull requests and the review process.

The progress on that project has stalled and I'm not so sure
anymore whether it is good idea to have yet another project
website. In particular since the OpenSSL Wiki has seen some
revival and increased activity caused by the upcoming
OpenSSL 3.0 release.

5f8e6c50bd doc: introduce some minimalistic markdown without essential changes
The goal is to transform the standard documents

    README, INSTALL, SUPPORT, CONTRIBUTING, ...

from a pure text format into markdown format, but in such a way
that the documentation remains nicely formatted an easy readable
when viewed with an normal text editor.

To achieve this goal, we use a special form of 'minimalistic' markdown
which interferes as little as possible with the reading flow.

 * avoid [ATX headings][] and use [setext headings][] instead
   (works for `<h1>` and `<h2>` headings only).
 * avoid [inline links][] and use [reference links][] instead.
 * avoid [fenced code blocks][], use [indented-code-blocks][] instead.

The transformation will take place in several steps. This commit
introduces mostly changes the formatting and does not chang the
content significantly.

[ATX headings]:         https://github.github.com/gfm/#atx-headings
[setext headings]:      https://github.github.com/gfm/#setext-headings
[inline links]:         https://github.github.com/gfm/#inline-link
[reference links]:      https://github.github.com/gfm/#reference-link
[fenced code blocks]:   https://github.github.com/gfm/#fenced-code-blocks
[indented code blocks]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#indented-code-blocks
