Home page suggestions to help people getting started

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The "Example" section at https://code.google.com/p/simple-rpc-cpp appears to 
contain two issues in the table that illustrates the build command (toward the 
bottom of the page).

1. A "-I" is required before the `simple_rpc --include-dir` in both commands

2. For the "local host" build command, "example_dot-rcp.cpp" is specified 
whereas it should be "example_dot-rpc.cpp" (RPC is mistyped)

It might also be helpful to add an "Installation" section. Draft wording (which 
you are of course welcome to improve) is below:

Installation

Checkout the project and change into the newly-created directory. As the 
scripts use /usr/bin/env and expect Python 2 as the default interpreter, you 
may need to modify your PATH to return a Python 2 interpreter.

Make the setup script executable via chmod +x setup.py. Now run ./setup.py. 
Type 0 (for "Configure") then press enter three times. Reload setup.py and use 
option 1 (for "Build"), then reload setup.py with root privileges and use 
option 2 (for "Install"). 

To verify success, "cd tests" and then run "make". If the tests pass, you can 
try out the "Example" project.

Thanks for your feedback. I have updated project home page accordingly.
