State VFS as a feature in the readme #18

I believe stating this as a feature would clear up confusion regarding Limo as a direct MO2 replacement for many potential users.

As it stands right now Limo is missing a feature of MO2's VFS: The overwrite directory. This will be added later in the form of a Reverse Deployer, which scans it's target directory and pulls out all files that did not exists when the deploy was created and are not managed by another deployer and then links them back in.

While i agree that mentioning VFS as a feature will help people familiar with MO2, i will wait with adding it to the list of features until the Reverse Deployer has been implemented. In the meantime i've added a section that should help people get an idea of how Limo works in b4cabcb.

Edit: Clarified reverse deployer function

I understand, thank you. I only mentioned this because others' asked when I tossed them over this way. I will keep track and let others know when the feature is in, so they can completely replace mo2. Again, thank you.
