feat: Clarifications in README

Browse source 
Extended the README to include a new section on bot configuration setup, emphasizing the necessity of a config.ini file for operation. This update clarifies the setup process for new users, ensuring they understand the requirement of configuring the bot before use. Additionally, outlined the repository policy regarding the use of the `main` branch for development and the process for contributing through feature branches and pull requests, aiming to streamline contribution workflows and maintain code quality.

The formatting improvements across the README enhance readability and ensure consistency in documentation presentation.

Generally, the `main` branch is considered unstable and should not be used in
production. Instead, use the latest release tag. The `main` branch is used for
development and may contain breaking changes at any time.
For development, a feature branch should be created from `main` and merged back
into `main` with a pull request. The pull request will be reviewed and tested
before merging.
