Add the required README sections (closes #75)

Policy names five README sections that were missing or misnamed.

The Description first line now names the project, purpose, category,
WTFPL license, and author. A new Getting Started section gives a
copy-pasteable build-from-source block and gen/check/fetch usage; every
command was run against a built binary. Problem Statement and Proposed
Solution are consolidated under a new Rationale heading, keeping the
prose rather than duplicating it. A new Design section documents the
package layout: mfer/ library, internal/cli commands, internal/log and
internal/bork support, cmd/mfer entrypoint, and the committed protobuf
code. Authors is renamed Author with the canonical link.

Getting Started uses go build because the make build target invokes
protoc, which script/bootstrap does not install.

+
+`mfer` builds from source with a Go 1.23+ toolchain. The generated protobuf code

+```sh
+git clone https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/mfer.git

+```sh
+# Write .index.mf describing every file under the current directory.
+bin/mfer gen .
+
+# Verify the files on disk against the manifest. Exits nonzero if any file
+# is missing or corrupted.
+bin/mfer check .index.mf
+
+# Download and cryptographically verify a tree published over HTTP: mfer
+# fetches <url>/index.mf, then downloads every file it lists.
+bin/mfer fetch https://example.com/tree/

+# Design
+
+The repository is split into a reusable library and a thin command-line wrapper
+around it.
+
+- `mfer/` is the reusable library and the heart of the project: it defines the
+  manifest format and implements building, scanning, checking, serialization,
+  and signing. The protobuf schema is `mfer/mf.proto`, and the generated code it
+  produces (`mfer/mf.pb.go`) is committed alongside it so the library builds
+  with `go get` and needs no `protoc` toolchain.
+- `internal/cli/` holds the command implementations — `gen`, `check`, `freshen`,
+  `export`, `list`, and `fetch` — that wire the library to the command-line
+  interface.
+- `internal/log/` provides the logging used across the commands.
+- `internal/bork/` provides error-handling support.
+- `cmd/mfer/` is the entrypoint: its `main` package assembles the pieces above
+  into the `mfer` binary.
+
+Everything under `internal/` is private to this repository; only the `mfer/`
+package is intended for import by other software.

-  them in `internal/cli/errmsg_test.go`, and made the freshen mtime-presence
-  test distinguish an absent mtime from the epoch (#87)
-- 2026-10-03: `script/cibuild` builds the image with the same command as
-  `script/docker`, `--no-cache` included, so the checks in the Dockerfile run on
-  every build, also on an unchanged tree (#89)
-- 2026-10-03: `fetch` removes whatever sits at a file's temp name and then
-  creates the temp file only if that name is free, so a hard link left there
-  cannot make it write into a file outside the destination directory (#115)
-- 2026-10-03: `fetch` refuses any manifest path that runs through a symlink
-  already in the destination directory, checked before each of its writes
-  (directories, temp file, rename), so such a symlink cannot send a write
-  outside it (#86)
-- 2026-10-02: a plain `docker build .` of a clone now stamps the tag or short
-  commit into `mfer version` instead of nothing: `.dockerignore` sends `.git`
-  (not `.git/config`), and the build stage takes the `VERSION` build argument,
-  otherwise `git describe --tags --always`, failing if `.git` is present and no
-  version comes out. `script/docker` is the canonical copy, which passes
-  `VERSION`; `bin/gitrev.sh` uses `--tags` too (#112)
-- 2026-09-21: validate manifest entry paths on deserialize so untrusted `.mf`
-  files cannot make `Checker` stat or read outside `basePath` (#61)
-- 2026-09-21: rewrote `script/test` to the canonical pattern (30s timeout,
