Emphacise need to pre-create config.toml
The README did not make it clear enough that a blank `config.toml` file needs to be pre-created before runner registration. Otherwise the `register` *runlabel* will silently fail to bind-mount the file into the proper location inside the container. While we're at it, also add a small example of why it may be a good idea to edit the `config.toml` file before commiting it as a secret. Signed-off-by: Chris Evich <cevich@redhat.com>
