README/examples: better direct users to the release version (#1624)

Browse source 
1. The instructions in the main README used to point users to the git main version. This has likely misdirected and confused many new users. Update to direct users to the latest release instead.
2. Rewrite the notice in the examples README to make it clearer and more concise, and to show the `latest` git branch.

**⚠️ Note: for users of releases on crates.io!**
Due to changes and additions to APIs, there are often differences between the development examples and the released versions of Bevy on crates.io.
If you are using a release version from [crates.io](https://crates.io/crates/bevy), view the examples by checking out the appropriate git tag, e.g., users of `0.4` should use the examples on [https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/tree/v0.4.0/examples](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/tree/v0.4.0/examples)
There are often large differences and incompatible API changes between the latest [crates.io](https://crates.io/crates/bevy) release and the development version of Bevy in the git main branch!
If you have cloned bevy's repo locally, `git checkout` with the appropriate version tag.
If you are using a released version of bevy, you need to make sure you are viewing the correct version of the examples!
- Latest release: [https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/tree/latest/examples](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/tree/latest/examples)
- Specific version, such as `0.4`: [https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/tree/v0.4.0/examples](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/tree/v0.4.0/examples)
When you clone the repo locally to run the examples, use `git checkout` to get the correct version:
```bash
# `latest` always points to the newest release
git checkout latest
# or use a specific version
git checkout v0.4.0
```
