Reorganize, make a first pass at awesome-list style guide compliance. This commit makes massive changes to the list organization. Instead of categorizing the projects as "Tor Project's Projects" or not, mainly, which was one gigantic and growing list of current and outdated projects, the line items are categorized by their purpose or function. The goal is to make the list more useful for someone who is unfamiliar with Tor and wants to know which tool or project is the most relevant to their use case. In addition, this commit adds the following Tor-based tools: * Ricochet, a Tor Onion service-based Jabber messenger. * Whonix, a GNU/Linux distribution that torifies everything by default. * OnionScan, a security tool for alerting on Onion service misconfigs. * Vanguards, an Onion service entry guard attack mitigation script. * tor.rb, a Ruby library for interacting with Tor. This commit further adds a License heading, and edits many list items for conformance with the awesome-list style guide. Namely, this means "a" and "an" prepositions have been dropped, project names are removed from the project line item description, periods are added to the end of line item descriptions, headings are moved to level one, a `CONTRIBUTING.md` file has been added, and so on.

Instead of categorizing the projects as "Tor Project's Projects" or not, mainly, which was one gigantic and growing list of current and outdated projects, the line items are categorized by their purpose or function. The goal is to make the list more useful for someone who is unfamiliar with Tor and wants to know which tool or project is the most relevant to their use case. In addition, this commit adds the following Tor-based tools: * Ricochet, a Tor Onion service-based Jabber messenger. * Whonix, a GNU/Linux distribution that torifies everything by default. * OnionScan, a security tool for alerting on Onion service misconfigs. * Vanguards, an Onion service entry guard attack mitigation script. * tor.rb, a Ruby library for interacting with Tor. This commit further adds a License heading, and edits many list items for conformance with the awesome-list style guide. Namely, this means "a" and "an" prepositions have been dropped, project names are removed from the project line item description, periods are added to the end of line item descriptions, headings are moved to level one, a `CONTRIBUTING.md` file has been added, and so on.

- [HTTPS Everywhere](https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere) - Firefox and Chrome extension that automatically switches to HTTPS connections with many major websites if those are available that ships in Tor Browser.
Second pass on style fixes, add a few more line items. Items added: * Orfox, the Tor Browser equivalent for Android. * New article titled "Connecting to an authenticated Onion service." * NoScript, a script blocker that ships in Tor Browser. Style fixes are shortening a few of the more-than-a-couple-sentences descriptions and adding punctuation to the end of each line item.

Remove Globe; it's not maintained. Remove duplicate names in line items. The style guide for Awesome Lists requests that line items not repeat themselves. This commit removes numerous instances where the name of the line item was repeated as the first part of its description. For example: * "TorBirdy - TorBirdy is Torbutton…" -> "TorBirdy - Torbutton…" This commit also removes Globe, as the Tor project volunteering page explicitly mentions that it's no longer being maintained. Unmaintained projects are not to be listed on Awesome Lists, also according to its style guide.

- [Compass](https://www.torproject.org/getinvolved/volunteer.html.en#project-compass) - Web and command line application that filters and aggregates the Tor relays based on various attributes.
- [DocTor](https://www.torproject.org/getinvolved/volunteer.html.en#project-doctor) - Notification service that monitors newly published descriptor information for issues. This is primarily a service to help the tor directory authority operators, but it also checks for a handful of other issues like sybil attacks.
