AppVeyor badge nuances

[Jimmy Byrd]

Description

Appveyor seems to "normalize" projects.

For example if you started a project called MyLib.SomethingElse, appveyor links should be
(https://buildstats.info/appveyor/chart/TheAngryByrd/MyLib-SomethingElse) (https://ci.appveyor.com/project/TheAngryByrd/MyLib-SomethingElse)

but are

(https://buildstats.info/appveyor/chart/TheAngryByrd/MyLib.SomethingElse) (https://ci.appveyor.com/project/TheAngryByrd/MyLib.SomethingElse)

which leads to no project being found when clicking the badges.

However

https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/github/TheAngryByrd/MyLib.SomethingElse?svg=true

is perfectly valid.

I think the solution is to just document this unless someone can come up with a better answer.
