Message:

Revamp TOP README and implement a TODO list
Review tracers.rst by adding snippets of source files
Add drafthtml target for Makefile related to draft building tag for sphinx-build to
display todo items at the top of the guide homepage

Misc:

• Use dedicated :file: role instead of ... for file or directory
• Update BibTeX entries of NEMO reference publications by using :title: role
• Dump of RELEASE_NOTES.rst
• New file todos.rst to list all items declared with todo directive
• Modify conf.py to add a conditional test for draft tag

+TOP (Tracers in the Ocean Paradigm) is the NEMO hardwired interface toward
+biogeochemical models and provide the physical constraints/boundaries for oceanic tracers.
+It consists of a modular framework to handle multiple ocean tracers,
+including also a variety of built-in modules.
 
 This component of the NEMO framework allows one to exploit available modules (see below) and
 further develop a range of applications, spanning from the implementation of a dye passive tracer to
 evaluate dispersion processes (by means of MY_TRC), track water masses age (AGE module),
-assess the ocean interior penetration of persistent chemical compounds (e.g., gases like CFC or even PCBs),
-up to the full set of equations involving marine biogeochemical cycles.
