Removed files:

Log message:
    Doesn't seem to be much point in keeping this README up to date anymore,
    since it's completely redundant with regress.sgml.  I think we agreed to
    remove it awhile back, actually, but no one got around to doing it.

I think the reason this was there is so people could inform themselves
about the regression tests during the installation process.  At least the
INSTALL file refers them here.

Is that a vote to resurrect the README file, or just a reminder to fix
the link from the installation instructions?

In absence of a better plan that maintains the availability of the
information this README file should probably exist.
