Small Updates to the README (#2091)
Update the README and related files. This commit generally updates some language in the "About" section, and other sections with respect to keeping accurate information, and laying out the project goals in a clear way. We're also marking Alacritty as "beta" software at this point, not that this has any explicit meaning.

summary: Modern, GPU accelerated terminal emulator
description: |
- Alacritty is the fastest terminal emulator in existence. Using the GPU
- for rendering enables optimizations that simply aren't possible in
- other emulators.
+ Alacritty is a terminal emulator with a strong focus on simplicity and
+ performance. With such a strong focus on performance, included features are
+ carefully considered and you can always expect Alacritty to be blazingly fast.
+ By making sane choices for defaults, Alacritty requires no additional setup.
+ However, it does allow [configuration](#configuration) of many aspects of the
+ terminal.
- Alacritty is focused on simplicity and performance. The performance
- goal means it should be faster than any other terminal emulator
- available. The simplicity goal means that it doesn't have features
- such as tabs or splits (which can be better provided by a window
- manager or terminal multiplexer) nor niceties like a GUI config editor.
-
- The software is considered to be at an alpha level of readiness—there
- are missing features and bugs to be fixed, but it is already used by
- many as a daily driver.
+ The software is considered to be at a **beta** level of readiness -- there are
+ a few missing features and bugs to be fixed, but it is already used by many as
+ a daily driver.
