.md to .rst conversion is not working

[lmcgartland]

Automatic conversion of the README file is not working properly—not sure what error is being thrown when it setup.py runs.

Maybe set long_description_content_type='text/markdown'?

I had some issue with the Markdown that I was using didn't work on PyPi, so I went to converting it to .rst which had been working and then for some reason suddenly isn't on the latest readme. Converting manually did the trick though which is weird.
