Place User Guide In App Via Markdown #173

Placing the user guide outside of the app causes issues with connectivity and with GitHub pointing users to different links or trying to get them to log in.

I pushed up a branch with some progress on it. I added a package to render the markdown but it kept telling me something about lifecycle hook problems...

I also had issues with importing markdown files rather than using template literal strings...which that didn't seem to work well either. I got some syntax to display correctly though.

So, it looks like the package is kind of abandoned...if I were looking for some open source project to maintain within the RN ecosystem, I bet this one would be a good one to look into with the maintainer. Including MD is a common need.

Postponing this issue for now in lieu of a web view with user guide info.
