Users have asked for documentation on --as-app setup (#189) and reading tokens from stdin (#187).

This PR adds:

docs: add stdin token example to README (closes #187)

  • Add example showing how to pipe tokens from stdin via file:///dev/stdin for Unix-like systems

Add GitHub Apps documentation and remove outdated header (closes #189)

  • Add GitHub Apps section to the README with one-time setup steps and CI/CD workflow example using actions/create-github-app-token.
  • Remove machine-man-preview header (graduated August 2020, no longer required)
  • Tested with --as-app and a GitHub App installation token against a live repository. Works.

Add example showing how to pipe a token from stdin using
file:///dev/stdin to avoid storing tokens in environment
variables or command history.
