[issue11913] sdist should allow for README.rst

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo <merwok at netwok.org> added the comment:

If it’s only a warning, just ignore it.  This would be easy to fix, but as it would be considered a new feature, it can’t go into distutils, which is frozen.  I am however willing to edit the documentation to tell that PyPI will accept README.rst and that people need not worry about the unfortunate warning.  Would that be okay with you?

In distutils2, the replacement for distutils, we don’t included README by default.  I don’t know why this was changed.
