Building in-source and running the test suite in-source both leave
many artifacts that we (purposely) do not cover via `.gitignore`.
For developing CMake we typically use out-of-source builds, so
suggest this in the README.
CMake can now compile as C++11 on all supported platforms. Check that
std::unique_ptr is available and fail early if missing. This will allow
us to use C++11 more broadly in CMake's implementation (previously it
was restricted to the serve mode implementation).

CMake will soon require both C++11 and libuv to build. Neither of
these works on HP-UX, so unfortunately we need to drop support for
the platform until someone can get them working.

The latter is now the preferred URL for visiting cmake.org with a
browser. Convert using the shell code:
git ls-files -z | xargs -0 sed -i 's|http://www\.cmake|https://cmake|g'
Rename 'Readme.txt' to 'README.rst', format the documentation as
reStructuredText, and modernize the content. Also add a new
'CONTRIBUTING.rst' explaining the preferred entry path for new
contributors.
