…d/README.md (#21131) Not required for anything, but it seems nice. CREDITS was excluded back in 2020, but it seems polite to include it in the sdists #9592 / f5f5485 With this PR, CREDITS won't be part of the wheel, but `typeshed/stdlib/_typeshed/README.md` will; let me know if I should exclude it from the wheel

This is something we seem to struggle with, eg see #9587 and #8949
This PR helps prevent these mistakes from happening by using a simpler rule for file inclusions. If we create more pure Python mypyc subpackages, we should no longer have to make an update here.
The other thing this does is get things passing with https://github.com/mgedmin/check-manifest. This tool compares what you've checked in to git with what gets added to an sdist. We now pass cleanly (meaning we should be adding everything we need). I was also careful to examine the output of check-manifest before this change (meaning that we shouldn't be adding many things we previously did not add).
Since in the new wheel building scripts that I created for #9536 we also now create an sdist, I'll add a step that runs check-manifest when it gets merged.
Also delete a symlink to a file that doesn't seem to exist anymore and some other cruft.
