Clarify installation/configuration instructions

Really appreciate all your work.

Maybe it's not my day, but I just spent almost an hour trying to run the package. I use Doom, so I skipped over the installation section, because my installation was different (add to packages.el instead of M-x install-package). This caused me to miss calling (require 'evil-multiedit) and when I was trying to call (evil-multiedit-default-keybinds) I was getting a void-function.

As a new user, it would also have helped for the instructions to explicitly say that I should consider adding (evil-multiedit-default-keybinds) (along with (require 'evil-multiedit)) to config.el. The README now says to "call" it, which is clear to me in retrospect, but was not clear enough to be able to follow the instructions.

I hope this is useful! Sorry for not proposing a PR, but I'm not confident that I did everything right, so would not be confident in writing instructions for others.

I think Doom Emacs comes with this plugin, doesn't it?

Thank you @hlissner. Also greatly appreciate your one-liners in the config comments ;)
