Previous to this commit, our PDK-template documentation would be fairly intimadating and confusing, often jumpin from basic introductions to advanced concepts, while expecting the reader to have an understanding of concepts they may not be familiar with.

This commit aims to rework the README to ensure that its more readable and user-friendly.

Should we note that the PDK will look for a branch called main unless specified? The error provided if that branch doesn't exist isn't clear that the branch couldn't be found, e.g.

pdk (FATAL): Unable to find a valid template at https://github.com/org/repo.git#main

I feel like it should be expected that the command would default to main. But I guess a wee note won't hurt. Specially if there is people out there still using master in their naming conventions.
