docs(readme): convert README.adoc -> Markdown (renders on Glama/profile/community-health) (#110)

README was AsciiDoc → renders as raw markup in Markdown consumers (Glama
MCP directory, GitHub community-health, GitHub profile). pandoc
asciidoc→GFM (badges → clickable), SPDX header kept, duplicate `.adoc`
removed. Part of the estate README-format fix.

+
+# Overview
+
+The MAA Framework is an integrated ecosystem comprising:
+
+| Component | Description |
+|----|----|
+| **MAA Framework** | Full-stack paradigm for verifiably-compliant, secure, sustainable systems |
+| **Oblíbený** | Reference language designed for the framework |
+| **Aletheia** | Microkernel implementation |
+
+# Project Scope
+
+The framework addresses the following domains:
+
+- **Security & Formal Verification** — Provable correctness guarantees
+
+- **AI Ethics & Axiology** — Value-aligned system design
+
+- **Dependability** — Fault-tolerant, reliable computing
+
+- **Language Design & Compilers** — Purpose-built toolchains
+
+- **Microkernel Architecture** — Minimal trusted computing base
+
+- **RISC-V** — Open hardware architecture support
+
+- **Sustainability** — Resource-efficient computing
+
+- **Economics-as-Code** — Programmable economic primitives
+
+- **Distributed Computing** — BOINC-compatible workloads
+
+- **Reversibility** — Turing-complete/incomplete computation models
+
+- **Web Protocols** — Modern network standards

+## Infrastructure
+
+- **Hub-and-spoke mirroring** to GitLab, Codeberg, Bitbucket
+
+- **SHA-pinned GitHub Actions** for supply chain security
+
+- **SSH host key verification** for MITM protection
+
+- **Minimal permission model** (`contents:` `read`)
+
