File extension

Since github treats .mkd as Markdown, and Mockdown is going to look awful in
Markdown due to 4 space indentation being treated as code, I think we should
use .markdown as the extension, not .mkd.

I already saw this happen once before, with the exact same number of
characters.

Good point, Ben. I changed the extension to "mkn" instead. I like keeping 
it short and I have other extensions planned:

- .mkx for extensions.
- .mkz for library packages.

The mkx is needed to show what files are meant as standalone documents 
when producing documentation for a project.
