Update the readme to make it more comprehensive (1046639)

This work fixes item 2 of Bugzilla bug [1046639](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1046639).

This updates the readme with all the requested content. I iterated with jeads on it in-channel this morning, and he is happy with it. The only question in my mind is should .md content have forced line breaks, or should the content line wrap? I am assuming the latter.

We have consciously chosen to use links with _newtab redirects to preserve the user's readme page.
