This patch make INFO files (e.g. README, CODING_STYLE etc) much more
readable when watched from GitHub GUI.

./VERSION and ./MAINTAINERS were leave untouched otherwise
./scripts/get_maintainer.pl breaks.

./COPYING and ./COPYING.LIB were leave untouched because it look likes
they come from GNU and not QEMU. 

Visualization of the change can be found at
https://github.com/ybettan/qemu/tree/md.
NOTE:
This last part of the message should be removed from the commit message
since I will remove the 'md' brance from my fork if the patch is
accepted.

Thanks for this patch, but we don't use Markdown format.
We use RST for docs files, but README, CODING_STYLE, etc
are just plain text and fine as they are I think.

Thanks for your reply.
I sent a V2 patch before I have noticed your response so if you could 
please copy your response to the V2 mail I will appreciate it.
