docs: Add pointers to general app developer/vendor docs in README
Rather than including specific documentation about `--show-metainfo`,
which is already documented in `doc/app-developers.md`, give some
pointers to the documentation in `doc/`.

-# Testing a metainfo/appdata file of an application
+# Documentation for app developers and vendors
-If you are developing an application, and want to see how your under-development
-metainfo file will appear when it’s eventually published into GNOME Software,
-run:
-```
-$ gnome-software --show-metainfo=./path/to/your/org.example.App.appdata.xml.in
-```
+Specific documentation is available for application developers who wish to test
+how their applications appear in GNOME Software; and for distribution vendors
+who wish to customise how GNOME Software appears in their distribution:
+ * [Tools in GNOME Software for application developers](./doc/app-developers.md)
+ * [Vendor customisation of GNOME Software](./doc/vendor-customisation.md)
