dist: accept .md versions for README et al.
This change was suggested by madmurphy; some ideas were taken
from the patch he provided.
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2021-06/msg00005.html
* bin/automake.in (@toplevelmd_ok): new global, listing the files
for which we will accept .md versions.
(@common_files): remove those files from there.
(handle_dist): check for .md if non-.md is absent.
(handle_minor_options): check for README-alpha.md.
(check_gnu_standards): accept .md version if present.
(check_gnits_standards): likewise.
(usage): output list of .md-accepted files.
* doc/automake.texi (Basics of Distribution): document.
* t/toplevelmd.sh: new test.
* t/list-of-tests.mk (handwritten_tests): add it.
* NEWS: mention new feature.
