Chinedu Francis Nwafili 309cc1cedd Add screenshots of examples
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.

capture

This example shows how to capture an image by rendering it to a texture, copying the texture to a buffer, and retrieving it from the buffer.

This could be used for "taking a screenshot," with the added benefit that this method doesn't require a window to be created.

To Run

cargo run --example capture
open examples/capture/red.png
