examples/README: cut out the incomplete list
... and add a generic explanation for them instead. Each example file should contain its own description these days.

+Each example source code file is designed to be and work stand-alone and
+rather self-explanatory. The examples may at times lack the level of error
+checks you need in a real world, but that is then only for the sake of
+readability: to make the code smaller and easier to follow.
