Update README.md #1189

Added examples to show =ro flag and globbing, and that shows that globbing in fstab should not be escaped If it is, mergerfs manages to mount something that shows up with ????? in ls, and cant be accessed or doesn't contain anything. TODO for someone to explain why.
Added clarification to globbing section about fstab. Mergerfs not being able to use `\` literal might possibly be classified as a bug.

apply the glob itself. Do not escape the glob in `fstab`. |

This is implied by saying it must be done in the shell but sure... be explicit. But why remove the emphasis?
Please squash the commits and change the summary to be more descriptive. |
Also, the man page is created from the README. Please generate the man page and check it in at the same time. |
=RO examples in examples
More clear wording in `mv` section.
Make the biggest potentially devastating trap visible where it is much more likely to be seen in time.
Emphasis back to the note about globbing
I'm not at my own PC, and using Github web, will test the man pages and squash the commit when I'm home later in the week. I have to say, that man page is pretty neat! |
Changed example lines to show =RO flag and globbing, and that emphasizes that globbing in fstab should not be escaped.
Also added comment about the trap of using
mv
right at the beginning where it is hard to overlook, so as to lower the risk of people deleting their files by accident.
