Initial rework of introductory sections, focused on making library value obvious.

Some clarification between "parse" and "scrape." Suggest using "parse" whenever possible.

Thanks for posting this PR.

I took some of your suggestions and rearranged some of the content on the README page. I also changed the word scrape to parse.

Concerning an example:

I walked through a single example for this news article:

https://www.cnn.com/2021/12/08/europe/germany-covid-europe-intl/index.html

This walk through covered all the functions that can be called using NewsHound. It also showed all the outputs that NewsHound provides. I'm not sure what I missed covering in this example.
