This project was born in mid-2017, before PEP-566 was adopted, and before the PEP rolled out to be widely-supported.

This causes a barrier to contribution if anyone wants to update the README or CHANGELOG and isn't familiar with reStructuredText. (As of this writing, getting VS Code to work with rst isn't a smooth experience).

Increasingly, tools are supporting markdown, so let's take the plunge and update the two .rst files in this repo to .md

As tooling improves for Markdown, and it becomes a ubiquitous
syntax, convert our documentation over to that format.

Includes minor changes to content, such as ordering and formatting.
