Add javascript sdk example to docs #11

Hey! This is just an idea. I'm the author of the sdk that's being used. I thought it would be cool to surface here, since it's much easier to use then having people use the underlying http and oauth packages.

@rofreg ?

Sorry for the super slow reply! I meant to review this PR and totally forgot, so thanks for the reminder 🙂 I love the idea of including information about third-party SDKs that wrap the Splitwise API. I'm sure that a ton of developers will find that useful. (Thank you for writing a Javascript SDK, by the way!)

That said, I think that we probably should not add new tabs to the "languages" column for each third-party SDK. This would get pretty cluttered if we continue to add examples for new SDKs, and I think it's pretty easy for developers to miss those tabs entirely.

Instead, I've just added a new section called "Third-party SDKs" to the beginning of the documentation, in between "Introduction" and "Authentication". This section includes links to keriwarr/splitwise and to similar SDKs in other languages, in order to help new developers discover existing Splitwise SDKs before they start writing all their own code from scratch.

Let me know if you have any feedback about that approach, or if you'd like me to update the link to point to a different part of your SDKs documentation!
