Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently, the README file is not clear about gradient-free optimization and why back-propagation isn't necessary in a gradient-free optimizer. This section should include commentary on using torch_pso with and without calling loss.backward() and its side-effects.

Inspired by #17.
