When looking into wgpu-rs as a replacement for WebGL I went to the
examples directory on GitHub to browse for a bit.
I wanted to see some of the examples at a glance without needing to
clone the repository.
This commit enables that by adding a README to each example with a
description of the example and screenshots / example output.
In a few cases the description is a bit redundant - but my hope is that
in the future we can improve all the READMEs.
Being a web API and thus very accessible, WebGPU could end up being many
people's first introduction to graphics programming so the lower we make
the barrier the better.

Reverse srgb support in hello-triangle (these were backwards by mistake)

`File::create` isn't available on wasm, so we can't actually write the
output image anywhere unless we target something else as the file
system (e.g. local storage)
Remove odd patching matching
Replace std::sync::Mutex with spin::Mutex in GpuFuture
Reduce GpuFuture usage to one explicit allocation instead of two
Fix examples to poll the device in the background when using map_read or map_write
Remove device.poll from GpuFuture::poll and document future invariants
Massively simplify examples
Use Arc::clone(...) instead of arc.clone()
Switch println to log::info
210: Update WGPU deps to rev 08e8d406c1 r=kvark a=aloucks
I also moved the `path` chunks in `Cargo.toml` to a single `[patch]` section so that it's one block to commment/uncomment for local development.

157: Handle resizing in hello-triangle r=kvark a=quadrupleslap
Nothing gets drawn on my computer unless the swap chain is resized along with the window.

- `RedrawRequested` is now used for rendering
- `EventsCleared` replaced by `MainEventsCleared` which requests redraw
- Removed capture from hello-triangle to simplify it slightly
148: Change Queue::submit to take &self r=kvark a=LaylConway
This small change allows multiple threads to submit buffers slightly more efficiently, by being able to do it concurrently without a lock on Queue.
In practice currently `Queue::submit` does a lot of locking internally for most of the function's duration, so it's only a small performance win right now, but it opens up the road for more improvements.
