Set the headless mode true per default #5

This pull request sets the headless mode to TRUE per default. I think it's quite annoying for the user to have the empty browser window open in the background without any use.

I also updated the readme.

For me the question came in mind why use electron and chromium at all as all calls can be satisfied via axios calls?

Thank you! Will be merging this in a minute.

Why puppeteer: because the "old" version (via terminservice/suche) requires a full (headless) browser with cookie/localStorage handling. You are right that the "new" path (via impftermine/service) would not need it.
