Add instructions for authenticating with a feed for the first time #5

Ran into issues where I couldn't figure out how to authenticate my feed without an existing PAT, and only figured it out by looking through code. Added instructions to the README so others don't run into the same situation. Happy to update/reword on feedback

While I like the idea of informing users about this, I think the real solution is to just fix the code a bit to accept this use case. I guess that it's a bug that this happens, and it probably should do the skip check anyway
