fs/cramfs/README still carries a "Future Development" section written
around the Linux 2.3.39 era discussing design decisions that have long
since been settled:
- Block size is 4096 and matches PAGE_SIZE on the reader.
- Endianness is host-endian; mkcramfs -B / -L handles cross-builds.
- Block-pointer extensions (CRAMFS_FLAG_EXT_BLOCK_POINTERS) ended up
being the answer to layout flexibility rather than inode growth.
Drop the stale forward-looking section -- the factual format
description above remains accurate and is kept as-is.
While here, replace the dead sourceforge URL in the "Tools" section
with the current location of the user-space tools on github.
