Support README.Rmd

Problem to solve

RMarkdown is a format that extend Markdown to support literate programming with R and other languages. Would be great if GitLab supported README.Rmd like it does for README.md.

Target audience

Further details

RMarkdown could be processed just like Markdown.

Proposal

Add .Rmd extension to the list of supported file extensions.

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

How many repositories have README.md
