Rename quip .txt files to .rst

This allows tooling to do nice highlighting. Python tried to rename its
PEPs recently but found it hard because of the PEPs being such an
established thing.
QUIPs are fresh, let's learn from the others.

-QUIP: 5
-Title: Choosing a Branch
-Author: Jędrzej Nowacki, Friedemann Kleint
-Status: Draft
-Type: Process
-Created: 2016-12-05

-========================================
-Choosing a Branch
-========================================
-
-Motivation
-----------
-
-This QUIP offers guidelines on the right branch to submit a change to. It
-originated from the
-`QtCS2016 Managing Qt Branches <http://wiki.qt.io/QtCS2016_Managing_Qt_Branches>`_
-session.
-
-Note 1: The QUIP applies to the normal course of development. Close to
-feature-freezes, branching and releases, the release team may impose
-tighter control.
-
-Note 2: The guidelines apply to the Qt frameworks only. Other products (like
-Qt Creator) may choose a different approach.
-
-Goal of the release branches (5.X.Y)
-------------------------------------
-
-- Preparation of the code base for a release undisturbed by activities in
-  the stable branches
-
-Goal of the long term support (LTS) branches (5.6 at the time of writing)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-- Support for 3 years after its initial release, extending the stable phase
-- Release roughly every 6 Months or when appropriate
-- Support slower moving OSes
-- Fix bugs in applications that were already shipped bundling the LTS and
-  continue to build against the LTS
-- Have a low regression risk
-- Add new minor platforms - if and only if changes are minimal, like
-  win8 => win8.1
-- Add support for newer toolchains - if and only if changes are small, like
-  adding MSVC 2015
-- Documentation clarifications
-
-We divide the LTS into 3 periods:
-
-*stable*
-    Initially, the LTS branch is handled like any stable branch.
-
-*strict*
-    This period starts when the subsequent stable branch is created (for the
-    5.6 LTS, this would have been 5.7). Submitting to the LTS branch directly
-    is then no longer possible; changes must be submitted to the stable branch
-    and undergo some testing first before being cherry-picked into the LTS
-    branch. Upgrading the Qt libraries (within LTS) must not put installed
-    applications at risk of breaking. Breaking existing bug workarounds is
-    therefore not allowed, even if the bug is fixed.
-
-*very strict*
-   (third year) We believe that there are no more P1 and P0 bugs.
-
-Goal of the stable branches (5.x)
----------------------------------
-
-- Bug fixes
-- Performance fixes
-- Documentation fixes
-- As a special case, pre-release stabilization immediately after branching
-  off the dev branch
-
-Goal of the dev branch:
------------------------
-
-- New feature development (adding new API, classes, libraries or modules)
-- Refactoring
-- Risky changes, requiring longer testing period (moc, qmake...)
-- Completely new platforms (WinRT)
-
-Approach
---------
-
-The table below lists typical code changes, and indicates the branch the
-change should be pushed to. In all cases, we need to estimate the impact of
-the change. For example, a fix for a performance problem may end up in a
-different branch depending on: how many users are affected, how big is the
-improvement, and what is the risk of regressions. The table shows the most
-stable branch (i.e. right-most), for every case. If a change is risky or it
-has lower impact, then it should be placed in a less stable (i.e. further to
-the left) branch.
