Description

Github allows to have your reposs README.md under .github directory as shown in https://github.com/nimgl/nimgl and https://github.com/ocornut/imgui but Gitea doesn't render neither readmes under .github nor under .gitea. You can live test it in the repo provided above.

This has been previously mentioned in https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/5370 but there has been no follow up.
