Make distcheck in gh action

[Davknapp]

currently the execution of make distcheck fails (https://github.com/DLR-AMR/t8code/actions/runs/8660464369/job/23748458003) because of:

enabling the successfull execution of make distcheck will close this Issue

Using a file README works in p4est and sc, presumably because it is included by default in the distribution. README.md may not be covered by any assumed rules. You may want to add it to the EXTRA_DIST variable.
