move special READMEs into doc/ and format as md
The formatting is very basic and more should probably be done, but we at least get the files out of the root directory which in case of the various READMEs was confusing salsa which one display as (central) README.

-Install-progress reporting
---------------------------
-
-If the apt options: "APT::Status-Fd" is set, apt will send status
-reports to that fd. The status information is separated with a ':',
-there are the following status conditions:
-
-status = {"pmstatus", "dlstatus", "conffile-prompt", "error", "media-change" }
-
-The reason for using a fd instead of a OpProgress class is that many
-apt front-end fork a (vte) terminal for the actual installation.
-
-The reason to do the mapping and l10n of the dpkg states to human
-readable (and translatable) strings is that this way the translation
-needs to be done only once for all front-ends.
