Pull request overview

This PR substantially rewrites the root README.md to reposition OpenMetadata around “semantic context for Data + AI”, adding expanded sections on context, semantics, knowledge graphs/ontologies, MCP, semantic search, quickstart, and community links.

Changes:

• Replaces the existing brief project overview with a long-form narrative focused on AI context/semantics and the metadata knowledge graph.
• Adds structured navigation (Contents) and new sections for MCP, Semantic Search, Standards, Core Capabilities, and Quickstart.
• Updates community, contributing, and related-product links.

Comments suppressed due to low confidence (1)
