Additional information

Reorganized the README for better clarity and flow, while preserving all content. Removed repetitions and improved structure.

Moved the license section to the bottom of `README.md` (common convention).
Rephrased for clarity and added a link to the `LICENSE` file.
Split the feedback and contribution sections for clarity
and moved the latter further down the document, as it seems
a more conventional location.
Commented out non-working badges to reduce clutter in the README.
Consolidated repeated links (website, wiki, blog) at the top of the README and removed duplicates.
Updated the document title to use "offlineimap3" (instead of "offlineimap") to match the repository name and avoid confusion.
Updated the "Project Status and Future" section to explicitly refer to the project as **OfflineIMAP3** and clarified the Python 3 port details.
Clarified the installation process by splitting it into two distinct options: installing from a tarball/zipball or using a package manager. Improved readability and structure.
Moved the fedback section to the bottom of `README.md` (seems better place for it).
