docs(readme): add a one-line definition as the opening line (#571)
Some checks are pending
CI / semgrep (push) Waiting to run

Leads the README with the canonical one-sentence definition (matching codeburn.app, llms.txt, and the JSON-LD) so search and AI answer engines lift a consistent description. The existing hook paragraph stays below.

**CodeBurn is a free, open-source, local-first tool that tracks AI coding token usage and cost across 31 tools and agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini, Grok and more), broken down by model, project, and task.**
You pay for Claude, Codex, Cursor, and a stack of other AI tools. The bill tells you the total. It never tells you that half of it went to conversation instead of code, or that an expensive model burned your budget on work a cheaper one would have one-shot.
CodeBurn does. It reads the session files your tools already write to disk and breaks down every token and dollar by **task, model, tool, and project**, across **31 AI tools**.
