Update with latest Theme Submission Guidelines (#744)

Closes #743 

- Added note that the content directory of an ExampleSite is now inherited from the HugoBasicExample for security reasons.
- Removed placeholder text for example README outline since there is no such outline.
- Instead I updated some of the points of what should be included in a README

Your theme's README file should be written in markdown and saved at the root of your theme's directory structure. Your `README.md` serves as
1. Content for your theme's details page at <https://themes.gohugo.io>
2. General information about the theme in your GitHub repository (i.e., it's usual purpose)
#### Example `README.md`
You can download the following `README.md` as an outline:

{{% note "Screenshots in your `README.md`"%}}
If you add screenshots to the README, please make use of absolute file paths instead of relative ones like `/images/screenshot.png`. Relative paths work great on GitHub but they don't correspond to the directory structure of [themes.gohugo.io](http://themes.gohugo.io/). Therefore, browsers will not be able to display screenshots on the theme site under the given (relative) path.
