Kevin Brown 8bf86ebae1 Tweak the README

Now we point users to the `LICENSE.md` file for the license,
instead of including it in the README. This also removes the
example integrations, which are no longer officially maintained
by Select2.

The translation section has also been updated.

Select2

Select2 is a jQuery-based replacement for select boxes. It supports searching, remote data sets, and pagination of results.

To get started, checkout examples and documentation at http://ivaynberg.github.io/select2

Use cases

Enhancing native selects with a better multi-select interface.

Tagging: ability to add new items on the fly.
