Use standard incubation notice. Change HLP to Fabric-API

[srderson]

Update the README to include the standard incubation notice. Change HLP-Candidate to Fabric-API

[christo4ferris]

The preamble:
"What we are making available today is the most recent stable version of a combination of many man years of work across multiple startups: Digital Asset, Bits of Proof, Blockstack, and Hyperledger. However, it is still a work in progress and we are in the process of replacing several components, adding others, and integrating with other open source projects. This particularly relates to security, scalability, and privacy.

Fabric-API was built with the requirements of enterprise architecture in mind by a team that has worked in financial institutions for decades. It has a highly modular design at both the code and runtime levels to allow for integrations with legacy systems."

was maybe appropriate for the proposed contribution, but not for the repo in incubation. I would suggest the following:
"The Hyperledger fabric-api is being built with the requirements of enterprise architecture in mind. It has a highly modular design at both the code and runtime levels to allow for integrations with legacy systems."

I would like to integrate our CONTRIBUTING.md but I can do that in a separate PR. We also need a MAINTAINERS.txt with @srderson and @tamasblummer listed (unless it is to be someone else on his team.

Thanks Chirs,

Yes, the text was copied from from the contribution project and needs rework. No problems with your suggestion and further edits might follow.

I added Robert Fajta @rfajta as maintainer.
