Rewrite documentation using DocKnot
Numerous fixes to the README file by converging on standard templates. Add a README.md for GitHub. Break thanks out into a separate THANKS file following the convention used by remctl.

+Before setting up the wallet server, review the Wallet::Config
+documentation (with man Wallet::Config or perldoc Wallet::Config). There
+are many customization options, some of which must be set. You may also
+need to create a Kerberos keytab for the keytab object backend and give it
+appropriate ACLs, and set up `keytab-backend` and its `remctld`
+configuration on your KDC if you want unchanging flag support.
+
+For the basic setup and configuration of the wallet server, see the file
+`docs/setup` in the source distribution. You will need to set up a
+database on the server (unless you're using SQLite), initialize the
+database, install `remctld` and the wallet Perl modules, and set up
+`remctld` to run the `wallet-backend` program.
+
+The wallet client supports reading configuration settings from the system
+`krb5.conf` file. For more information, see the CONFIGURATION section of
+the wallet client man page (`man wallet`).
