Convert README from Markdown to ReStructured Text and use as longdesc (#22330)

* Convert README from Markdown to ReStructured Text and use as longdesc

Discussion in #13758 led to deciding to switch README to rst and having
setup.py consume it as the long_description.

* Fix long string in setup.py for pep8 compliance

* Open README.rst as read-only

* Update usages of root README.md to README.rst

Unsure about the file ./packaging/debian/docs as it (only) contains the
text README.md. I believe it's referencing ./packaging/debian/README.md
but maybe someone who knows debian packaging could review it?

* Pick up fixes that had been merged into README.md after the initial conversion to rst

Ansible
=======
Ansible is a radically simple IT automation system. It handles configuration-management, application deployment, cloud provisioning, ad-hoc task-execution, and multinode orchestration - including trivializing things like zero-downtime rolling updates with load balancers.
Read the documentation and more at https://ansible.com/
You can find installation instructions [here](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/intro_installation.html) for a variety of platforms. Most users should probably install a released version of Ansible from `pip`, a package manager or our [release repository](https://releases.ansible.com/ansible/). [Officially supported](https://www.ansible.com/ansible-engine) builds of Ansible are also available. Some power users run directly from the development branch - while significant efforts are made to ensure that `devel` is reasonably stable, you're more likely to encounter breaking changes when running Ansible this way.
Design Principles
=================
* Have a dead simple setup process and a minimal learning curve
* Manage machines very quickly and in parallel
* Avoid custom-agents and additional open ports, be agentless by leveraging the existing SSH daemon
* Describe infrastructure in a language that is both machine and human friendly
* Focus on security and easy auditability/review/rewriting of content
* Manage new remote machines instantly, without bootstrapping any software
* Allow module development in any dynamic language, not just Python
* Be usable as non-root
* Be the easiest IT automation system to use, ever.
Get Involved
============
* Read [Community Information](https://docs.ansible.com/community.html) for all kinds of ways to contribute to and interact with the project, including mailing list information and how to submit bug reports and code to Ansible.
* All code submissions are done through pull requests. Take care to make sure no merge commits are in the submission, and use `git rebase` vs `git merge` for this reason. If submitting a large code change (other than modules), it's probably a good idea to join ansible-devel and talk about what you would like to do or add first and to avoid duplicate efforts. This not only helps everyone know what's going on, it also helps save time and effort if we decide some changes are needed.

Ansible
*******
Ansible is a radically simple IT automation system. It handles
configuration-management, application deployment, cloud provisioning,
ad-hoc task-execution, and multinode orchestration -- including
trivializing things like zero-downtime rolling updates with load
balancers.
Read the documentation and more at https://ansible.com/
You can find installation instructions
`here <https://docs.ansible.com/intro_getting_started.html>`_ for a
variety of platforms.
Most users should probably install a released version of Ansible from ``pip``, a package manager or
our `release repository <https://releases.ansible.com/ansible/>`_. `Officially supported
<https://www.ansible.com/ansible-engine>`_ builds of Ansible are also available. Some power users
run directly from the development branch - while significant efforts are made to ensure that
``devel`` is reasonably stable, you're more likely to encounter breaking changes when running
Ansible this way.
If you want to download a tarball of a release, go to
`releases.ansible.com <https://releases.ansible.com/ansible>`_, though
most users use ``yum`` (using the EPEL instructions linked above),
``apt`` (using the PPA instructions linked above), or
``pip install ansible``.
