Converted legacy readme from .md to .rst
Revert "Converted legacy readme from .md to .rst"
This reverts commit e33fef7a5aaa5dd377f87b90a667a2704b9fb834.
To solve the issue of carrying object files from previous builds,
Matias changed the archiving process to re-archive libapps.a on every compilation,
if libapps.a carries more object files, incremental compilation will waste too
many time in re-archiving, compared with the previous implement, this is a degradation
of the build system. Referring to mature engineering projects such as cmake, if there
is configuration or source file changed, the best solution should be to reconfigure
the environment.
Revert this PR to ensure the compilation speed during incremental compilation.

| Fix: ensure archive files do not carry object files from prior builds
|
| In some cases, when NuttX configuration changes and this makes the
| object list used to build one of the .a libraries change as well,
| since the command used to build it is "ar crs" and this simply appends
| the list of object files, the library could still include object
| files from prior builds. This commit modifies the ARCHIVE macro to
| erase the .a file if it already exists.
|
| Since in some cases this behavior was actually expected (object
| files from a subdirectory were appended to a library created one
| level above) I added a ARCHIVE_ADD which works as ARCHIVE did.
|
| This change should greatly improve behavior of building after
| configuration changes.

This PR renames `tools/Makefile.*` to have the `.mk` extension. This PR also updates `README.md` and other files that references the other files.
Note: Skipped Makefile.host for this PR since it caused failures in CI for the sim build
By using a standard extension for Makefiles (https://www.file-extension.info/format/mk), editors will auto-format files.
This change will also improve developer ergonomics when searching for specific files
Verified locally that build still works, CI will verify more!
wget is missing from some system (like macOS and Windows native),
it's better to use curl to simplify build environment.
