Subject: [PATCH] Add useful shields to readme (#8493)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Added shields directing to synapse-dev room, showing license, latest version on PyPi and supported Python versions.
I've moved substitution definitions to the bottom to improve readability.
