doc: add Support section in README

Browse Source 
Add a Support section, borrowing heavily from wp-cli project.

Move stuff about contributing to Node.js to the bottom as vastly more
users are interested in using Node.js and getting help with Node.js than
contributing to Node.js. Information still belongs, just not at the top.
(Many people will know to look in CONTRIBUTING.md anyway.)

## Resources for Newcomers
## Support
### Official Resources
Node.js contributors have limited availability to address general support
questions. Please make sure you are using a [currently-supported version of
Node.js](https://github.com/nodejs/Release#release-schedule).
* [Website][]
When looking for support, please first search for your question in these venues:
* [Node.js Website][]
* [Node.js Help][]
* [Contributing to the project][]
* IRC (node core development): [#node-dev on chat.freenode.net][]
* [Open or closed issues in the Node.js GitHub organization](https://github.com/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=sort%3Aupdated-desc+org%3Anodejs+is%3Aissue)
* [Questions tagged 'node.js' on StackOverflow][]
### Unofficial Resources
If you didn't find an answer in one of the venues above, you can:
* IRC (general questions): [#node.js on chat.freenode.net][]. Please see
<http://nodeirc.info/> for more information regarding the `#node.js` IRC
channel.
* Join the **unofficial** [#node.js channel on chat.freenode.net][]. See
<http://nodeirc.info/> for more information.
_Please note that unofficial resources are neither managed by (nor necessarily
endorsed by) the Node.js TSC. Specifically, such resources are not
currently covered by the [Node.js Moderation Policy][] and the selection and
actions of resource operators/moderators are not subject to TSC oversight._
GitHub issues are meant for tracking enhancements and bugs, not general support.
Remember, libre != gratis; the open source license grants you the freedom to use
and modify, but not commitments of other people's time. Please be respectful,
and set your expectations accordingly.
