Trying to streamline the information given in the README for "new" users (including people who have not used it in a long time).

I noticed that it is complicated with some of the duplication, e.g., https://thingweb.io/docs/node-wot/api/ or https://github.com/eclipse-thingweb/node-wot/blob/master/packages/binding-coap/README.md

We also already saw that some of the references online Things are not reachable, e.g., coap://plugfest.thingweb.io/testthing (neither HTTP nor CoAP).

Note that --save is no longer required since NPM v5.

### As a CLI tool

You can alternatively use node-wot via its command line interface (CLI). Please visit the [CLI tool's Readme](<[url](https://github.com/eclipse-thingweb/node-wot/tree/master/packages/cli)>) to find out more.

Note: I recall we were using the absolute URLs for a good reason - to show links properly if the MD document is shown somewhere else. I would tend to keep it that way...

Anyhow, I see we don't use it consistently.

I think the problem arises in npm, there relative links probably don't work. Another reason why we should move most of the doc to a proper documentation site.

Yes, I also think we should keep the full URLs
