Update chapel.cray.com URLs to chapel-lang.org and propose updating the page's website entry similarly |

Line 19:
I have a conflict of interest with Chapel, so cannot make these changes myself, but propose the following improvements:
* updating the website from http://chapel.cray.com to https://chapel-lang.org to reflect a recent (fall 2017) change in the project's URL.
* <del datetime="2016-09-29T10:42">updating the external link to point to Chapel's GitHub repository (https://github.com/chapel-lang/chapel) rather than the SourceForge repository which ceased to be the primary project repository in 2014.</del>
* <del datetime="2016-09-29T10:52">fixing the formatting of, or removing, the trademark (TM) symbols on the references to the Cray MTA / XMT extensions to C and Fortran in the "influenced by" section on the sidebar. In my Chrome browser on my laptop, they appear as "Cray MTATM /XMTTMextensions to..." rather than "Cray MTA (TM) / XMT (TM) extensions to..."</del>
* updating the "first appeared" date on the sidebar to an earlier year. 2003 is when the project started (
* updating the introductory text to refer to the DARPA HPCS program (which wrapped up in 2012) as where Chapel originated from, but not what drives it today (
* adding a reference to the Chapel Chapter from MIT Press' "Programming Models for Parallel Computing" (https://mitpress.mit.edu/programming-models-parallel-computing) to the "Further Reading" section (this is the PMfPC-Chapel.pdf document I referred to in the previous bullet).
