…Changed the README to markdown.
…nstead of open().
This required a few modifications to PdfFileWriter. (FYI: The example `fillable_form.pdf` was created in LibreOffice from the enclosed `fillable_form.odt`.)

The big-ticket item in this PR is that I got PyPDF2 to correctly fill in the text fields of a PDF form and make them visible for printing. This required a few modifications to PdfFileWriter. (See the comments for where I gave credit to the dude on Stackoverflow with the solution.)
fillable_form.pdfwas created in LibreOffice from the enclosedfillable_form.odt.)NOTE: In the new Sample_Code/fillable_fields.py, I couldn't get it to repeat, generating a second filled-in PDF with different data. Someone with more knowledge of the internals needs to see the FIXME comment I added at the end.
