[python-control-developers] creation of Slycot repository within python-control organization

[Scott C. L. <sco...@gm...>]

Following discussion on pull request #100 [1], I created a fork of Slycot at

https://github.com/python-control/Slycot

I created it without the GitHub semantics of forks, so you will notice
that there is no small fork icon with links to
<https://github.com/jgoppert/Slycot> or
<https://github.com/avventi/Slycot>. I was thus motivated because

1. Slycot (and SLICOT) is currently an important part of python-control,
and jointly maintaining it with `control` is easier if the fork is not
temporary; and

2. avoiding the GitHub-fork-labeling reduces the chance of confusion in
case python-control/Slycot diverges from its ancestors.

If anyone prefers otherwise, now or later we can re-instantiate the site
with GitHub fork semantics, all while preserving the Git repository URL.
