Added long_description_content_type

With [PEP
566](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0566/#description-content-type-optional), the `long_description` can be Markdown with the `long_description_content_type` arg. This adds documentation for it

There were also a couple cases where filenames were enclosed with quotes
rather than as code; I've changed those to be `code` as well for
consistency.
