docs: add an About section framing OpenTag as a Channels SDK starter - #39

Conversation
The README explains what OpenTag does and how to fork it, but never says who publishes it, that it exists as a starter project for the Channels SDK, or where to go with a question. Add an About section above the license that says all three, and restate the one distinction the rest of the README warns is easy to confuse: the open-source Channels SDK is the library, CopilotKit Intelligence is the optional managed connection. Community and issue links match the ones the CopilotKit and channels-sdk READMEs already publish.
The new About section frames OpenTag as a starter project for the Channels SDK, while the section heading above still called it the complete Channels SDK application. Two claims about the same repository, and the starter framing is the accurate one: OpenTag is a working system you fork, not a finished product. Nothing linked to the old anchor.

publishes it, that it exists as a starter project for the Channels SDK, or where
to go with a question. This adds an About section above the license.
