Stefan Hajnoczi c814b17762 README: use 'https://' instead of 'git://'
When you clone the repository without previous commit history, 'git://'
doesn't protect from man-in-the-middle attacks.  HTTPS is more secure
since the client verifies the server certificate.

Now that we have a website that accepts patches on the list, the
main project should make it easier to find information about that
process.

Stefan Hajnoczi 70b7fba987 Use HTTPS for qemu.org and other domains
qemu.org enabled HTTPS in 2017 and it should be used instead of HTTP.
There are also URLs to json.org, openvpn.net, and other domains that
support HTTPS.

This patch updates the qemu.org domains everywhere and also third-party
domains that I have checked.

Stefan Hajnoczi 1b3bbc6887 Use qemu.org domain name
The owner of qemu.org has delegated authority to modify DNS records to
the QEMU Project.  This has allowed us to use the domain name without
worries about IP address changes or technical issues disrupting service.
The issues described in commit 8593898109
("Use qemu-project.org domain name") have therefore been mitigated.

This patch switches back to consistently using qemu.org instead of
qemu-project.org in documentation, version.rc, and the Windows installer
script.

The git submodules and SeaBIOS still use qemu-project.org for the time
being.  This will be fixed in the QEMU 2.12 release cycle.

checkpatch.pl and other scripts fail without README. Revert
the rename for now; we may add README.md as a symlink later.

This reverts commit e5dfc5e8e7.

Pranith Kumar e5dfc5e8e7 Move README to markdown
Move the README file to markdown so that it makes the github page look
prettier. I know that github repo is a mirror and not the official
repo, but I think it doesn't hurt to have it in markdown format.

Daniel P. Berrange 0a3c190098 README: fill out some useful quickstart information
The README file is usually the first thing consulted when a user
or developer obtains a copy of the QEMU source. The current QEMU
README is lacking immediately useful information and so not very
friendly for first time encounters. It either redirects users to
qemu-doc.html (which does not exist until they've actually
compiled QEMU), or the website (which assumes the user has
convenient internet access at time of reading).

This fills out the README file as simple quick-start guide on
the topics of building source, submitting patches, licensing
and how to contact the QEMU community. It does not intend to be
comprehensive, instead referring people to an appropriate web
page to obtain more detailed information. The intent is to give
users quick guidance to get them going in the right direction.

Stefan Hajnoczi 8593898109 Use qemu-project.org domain name
qemu.org is held by a third-party and no core community contributor has
access to the DNS configuration.  This leaves the website exposed to
outages due to DNS issues or IP address changes.  For example, if the
web server IP address needs to change we cannot guarantee qemu.org will
point to it!

The newer qemu-project.org domain name is owned by Anthony Liguori
<anthony@codemonkey.ws>.  You can confirm this by querying the whois
information.  Also note that the #qemu IRC channel topic already
references qemu-project.org.

Short of having a dedicated legal entity to hold the domain name on
behalf of the community, qemu-project.org seems like the safest bet.

Let's replace references to qemu.org with qemu-project.org.

Note that git-submodule(1) does not detect URL changes.  The following
commands clear out and re-initialize all submodules to ensure you are
using the latest URLs:

  $ git submodule deinit . # you'll be warned if you have local changes
  $ rm -rf .git/modules    # also clear cached .git/ directories
  $ git submodule update --init
