more cleanup of filename and description text

"GitHub for Windows" has been very insistent on deleting
"FAQ/What-is-the-VRT's-Role.md" and i think i finally have made it
happy. originally it was not even pulling the file to the local
repository which is why i even messed with the name at all. now that i
got the file into the local repository, i've renamed it as well as
adjusted the two READMEs as necessary. that should finally make it
happy. i believe that the problem is/was the "?" in the original
filename as well as the "'" (apostrophe).
fix name for last time
add default .gitattributes file

one main reason is to normalize the line endings in the files so we
don't end up with a mishmash of various ones causing problems
add default .gitignore file

it is a good place to start for ignoring unneeded files
