Sync rna-transcription docs with problem-specifications (#349)
The rna-transcription exercise has been overhauled as part of a project to make practice exercises more consistent and friendly. For more context, please see the discussion in the forum, as well as the pull request that updated the exercise in the problem-specifications repository: - https://forum.exercism.org/t/new-project-making-practice-exercises-more-consistent-and-human-across-exercism/3943 - exercism/problem-specifications#2251

If you want to look at how the inputs and outputs are structured, take a look at the examples in the test suite.

It's all very complicated, but the basic idea is that sometimes people's bodies produce too much of a given protein.
9+
That can cause all sorts of havoc.
10+
11+
But if you can create a very specific molecule (called a micro-RNA), it can prevent the protein from being produced.
12+
13+
This technique is called [RNA Interference][rnai].
