Make citation section more prominent #152

Currently information about citing NWB is under FAQ: https://nwb-overview.readthedocs.io/en/latest/faq.html#how-do-i-cite-nwb-2-in-my-research

You have to be looking for it to find it. It would be nice to put this up-front, so that when people start to use NWB, particularly when writing data, they already have a seed planted in their mind that they should cite NWB in their paper to give the team academic credit.

See how "Citing BIDS" is a subsection of the Introduction to BIDS: https://bids-specification.readthedocs.io/en/stable/introduction.html

It might be a bit much to put it at the bottom of the short "Intro to NWB" page. But maybe it could be Section 7 of "Converting neurophysiology data to NWB"?

Maybe this is something that should be part of nwb.org? We have it on https://www.nwb.org/publications/ but maybe we can make a separate page on "Citing NWB" and have it in the "About" menu.
