Per feedback: the three-method exposition was too verbose for a README. New shape:

  • curl | gjs install.js bootstrap first (works without any prerequisites)
  • gjsify-CLI alternatives (dlx / install -g) collapsed into one follow-up line for users who already have the CLI installed
  • Full detail (when to pick which path, cache layout, etc.) lives on the website project page, already linked at the top of the README

Also drops the experimental tag — the install path has been stable since 4.0.0-rc.15.

Per feedback: the three-way exposition was too long for a README. Put
the `curl | gjs install.js` bootstrap first (the no-prerequisites
path that always works), with the gjsify dlx + install -g
alternatives collapsed into a single follow-up line for users who
already have the gjsify CLI. Detail moved to the project page on
the website (linked at the top of this README).

Also drops the "experimental" tag — the install path has been
stable since 4.0.0-rc.15.
