doc: include README as mainpage
doxygen supports markdown so we can expand the README with general interesting information in markdown format and have it be the front page of the documentation at the same time. This requires renaming README to README.txt, but that's a relatively small price to pay. Signed-off-by: Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer@who-t.net> Reviewed-by: Jonas Ã…dahl <jadahl@gmail.com>

+libinput
+========
+
+libinput is a library that handles input devices for display servers and other
+applications that need to directly deal with input devices.
+
+It provides device detection, device handling, input device event processing
+and abstraction so minimize the amount of custom input code the user of
+libinput need to provide the common set of functionality that users expect.
+
+Input event processing includes scaling touch coordinates, generating
+pointer events from touchpads, pointer acceleration, etc.
+
+libinput originates from weston, the Wayland reference compositor.
+
+The source code of libinput can be found at:
+http://cgit.freedesktop.org/wayland/libinput
