docs: title the README with the PEARL backronym and add an epigraph
I made the recursive backronym the README title — Pearl Edits and Reflects Linear (P=Pearl, E=Edits, A=and, R=Reflects, L=Linear) — and named it in the opening line, matching the sibling projects' READMEs (Chime, emacs-wttrin). Added an Umberto Eco epigraph, "We like lists because we don't want to die.", in the same quote style they use. The cgit repo description on cjennings.net is set to match.

-Pearl brings Linear issues into Emacs as a working Org file. Fetch your open issues, a project, a Linear Custom View, an ad-hoc filter, or a saved local query; Pearl renders each issue as an Org heading with the description and comments in the body and Linear metadata in a namespaced property drawer. Edit what you need, then push it back explicitly with conflict-aware commands.
