Many projects use CHANGELOG.md to convey their list of changes. Add a
link there. In README.md, instead of describing "release history",
use the "Changelog" terminology.
* Leadership -> membership.
* Clarify roles per member.
* List full-time members and funding source.
* Add Josh Aas, project management.
* Link to GitHub profiles.
The self-signed certificate limitation imposed by the default webpki
certificate verifier is somewhat nuanced. This commit updates the README
to reflect some of this nuance.
- Don't list dependencies in the headline
- Remove relativistic language like "mature" and "widely"
- Remove possible future features as it is incomplete and thus misleading, should eventually replace with a roadmap
- Make it clear that Rustls provides no unsafe features *by default*
- remove self-signed certs and compression from non-features list because it's nuanced and we don't want to turn people away
- Add a list of project leadership
This clarifies the rustls position on self-signed certificates.
Users writing tests using rustls should be aware that a
self-signed cert won't work as expected.

Previously we linked to the *ring* README to describe Ring's supported
architectures in more detail. Unfortunately that section of the upstream
README was removed without a replacement.
This commit emphasizes that while Rustls is platform independent, *ring*
is not. To replace the detailed platform support information we now link
directly to the relevant *ring* CI configuration for the version in use
by Rustls.
This commit removes two "Future release" items from the release history
section of the README.
It seems clearer to have this section dedicated to the release history,
not upcoming work. I also think the two described pieces of work might
not be what the project is currently prioritizing.
* Remove extraneous ':' characters. Don't prefix webpki with "lib". Use code markers for references to webpki and ring.
* Apparently code markers don't work inside an HTML link. Retain the change getting rid of the extraneous em around ring.
* Address review comments
