[asdf-devel] [patch] markdown documentation tweak

For what it's worth, I'd prefer that the markdown documentation die a
natural death in favor of the texinfo documentation.

The markdown documentation requires a complex toolchain (cl-markdown +
many dependencies) that the average ASDF user cannot be expected to
have.  It also works poorly when you are off the web.

By comparison, texinfo requires what almost every lisp user will have, a
standard gnu-based environment, with makeinfo, and generates output
forms (pdf and info) that can readily be used off line.

Cheers,
Robert
