README: Update generally
...
* Reflect fact that project ships pages in sections 1-8.
* Resync documentation of the basic Makefile targets with what they
actually do at present. Slighly simplify discussion.
* Put the man page overlaps into a table.
+ Drop references to overlaps with the old a.out ld.so, long dead.
* Update reference to Announce file to use current naming convention.
+ Send people looking for copyright information there rather than
duplicating some of it here.
* Direct reader to the top-level homepage instead of more deeply to the
"Contributing" page.
* Reflow paragraphs to 72 columns.

...
dl_iterate_phdr() tells us not just which objects are
loaded, but also the order in which they are loaded
(the "link-map order"). Since the order is relevant for
understanding symbol resolution, give the reader this clue.

man-pages project. .UR and .UE, from the groff man macros,
are used 73 times.
Please find attached a patch to un-document .URL in favor
of .UR and .UE.

* Remove nop argument from HP macros.
* Remove nop DT macro.
* Replace LP macro with more commonly-used PP macro.
The above do not change the output whatsoever (confirmed with -Z).
* Use .I macro instead of font escapes, obtaining italic correction.
To see the above distinction, use -Tps, -Tpdf, or similar before and
after the change.
