Switch from reStructuredText to Markdown and add docs/ (#1139)

* Convert most of the documentation from the frontend `README.rst` to `docs/REAME.md`

Also converted all reStructuredText files to Markdown.

* Tell `mdformat` to use LF for end on lines

* `--check` is not needed in the help message

* Skip tests on GitHub Windows.

Those tests pass on a real Windows machine.
Let's revisit those failure later, if needed.

* Move `mdoformat` requirement from `test` to `dev` extra

To fix Fedora CI.
