Add background story about the renaming

Browse source 
We want to communicate transparent. So we should state very clear what
CodiMD is and what makes it different from HackMD and at the same time
how we are related and that there are no bad boys involved.

# HackMD CE became CodiMD
CodiMD was recently renamed from its former name was HackMD. CodiMD is the free software version of HackMD. It was the original Version of HackMD. The HackMD team initiated CodiMD and provided a solid code base. Due to the need of paying bills, A fork was created and called HackMD EE, which is a SaaS (Software as a Service) product available at [hackmd.io](https://hackmd.io).
We decided to change the name to break the confusion between HackMD and CodiMD, formally known as HackMD CE, as it never was an open core project.
Just to more confusion: We are still friends with HackMD :heart:
