Fixes #2899, #2870. Added README.txt, CHANGES.txt, COPYRIGHT.txt, LICENSE.txt, and INSTALL.txt as markdown files for plugins. Added page handler to parse and serve them. Added links in plugin admin. Refs #3236. Problems with displaying parsed markdown because of missing parts of the admin theme's CSS.
