Explain what RPC stands for #3

This might be more a beginner thing, but I expected an explanation of what RPC is and what it stands for, so that it's clearer when this library is useful

Thanks for your continued work in open source

RPC stands for Remote Procedure Call, which is a way to execute functions on remote servers.

This line is in the README

znode is a remote method execution library for Node.js and the browser.

Do you think it could rewritten to be more clear?

A paragraph that says when you need it maybe, but the abbreviation is already useful; thanks @dstreet
