Rebuilds the README for someone who has never seen the project, on the Best-README-Template structure.

  • New About section with the motivation, feature list, and two screenshots (Main and E-Beam tabs, captured with no hardware connected and no personal paths).
  • Built With list taken from requirements.txt.
  • Getting Started: a hardware/defaults table (values read from the code), install steps, email alert setup.
  • Usage: the typical run, shortened from the old workflow section.
  • Contributing: issues only, no PRs.
  • Adds an MIT LICENSE (copyright Jacques Attinger, 2025).

Merge order: merge #1 first. Both PRs touch the credentials snippet in the README, so this branch needs a quick rebase afterward.

Also adds the project logo (images/logo.png) at the top of the README.

- Rebuild README on Best-README-Template: about, built with, getting started, usage
- Add Main and E-Beam tab screenshots (captured with no hardware connected)
- Add MIT LICENSE
- Document the email_credentials.py setup, including ALERT_SENDER
