Update README

Description

This pull request enhances the SplashKit Core README by providing a detailed overview of the repository, key features, and contributor guidelines. These updates make the README more informative, especially for new users and contributors exploring the core library of the SplashKit SDK.

Key Updates

  • New Introduction: Expanded the introduction to highlight SplashKit Core as the core library of the SplashKit SDK, which provides essential functions and tools for beginner-friendly game and application development. Emphasized its role in handling graphics, audio, input, networking, and more.

  • Features Section: Added a comprehensive list of features, including cross-platform compatibility, consolidated libraries, documentation and examples, and community-driven development. This gives potential users a clear understanding of what SplashKit Core offers.

  • Contributing Guidelines:

    • Added specific guidance on contributing to SplashKit Core, covering feature development, testing, documentation, and submitting pull requests.
    • Highlighted key directories (e.g., coresdk for feature development, coresdk/src/test for testing) to help contributors get started efficiently.
    • Linked to the CONTRIBUTING.md file for platform-specific setup instructions, ensuring contributors have the necessary tools and environment configuration.
  • GitHub Stats: Added badges for GitHub contributors, issues, pull requests, forks, and stars for both SplashKit and Thoth Tech repositories. These stats offer an at-a-glance view of project activity and community engagement.

Motivation

The goal of these changes is to make the README more comprehensive and user-friendly, especially for new contributors and users in preparation for Trimester 3 2024.
