Adds a "Online demo" link to the README pointing to tig running in the browser: https://gallery.demoshell.com/app/tig/

It's the actual tig binary inside an emulated Linux VM (WebAssembly). The VM is seeded with a real git repo (history, branches, merges) so the log, diff, etc have something to show. The image rebuilds automatically when a new release is published.

Disclosure: I run the service behind this (Demoshell). The demo and hosting are free for open-source projects (the badge carries a small attribution).

The demo page also allows the maintainer to claim that VM if you'd like to support it. Otherwise I'll keep taking care of it.
