This PR significantly enhances the README.md documentation to provide a much more comprehensive and user-friendly guide for the waitfor-postgres library.

Key Improvements

Added Essential Information

  • Installation instructions with go get command
  • Status badges for build status, Go version, and license
  • Detailed library description explaining purpose and use cases
  • Features overview highlighting key capabilities

Enhanced Usage Examples

  • Multiple code examples covering different scenarios:
    • Basic connection testing
    • Multiple database support
    • Custom configuration with retry logic
    • Proper error handling patterns
    • Context and timeout usage

Technical Documentation

  • URL format documentation with support for both postgres:// and postgresql:// schemes
  • Configuration options table with clear descriptions and defaults
  • URL components breakdown explaining all parts of connection strings
  • API reference for waitfor framework options

Integration Guidance

  • Docker Compose example showing service configuration
  • Kubernetes init container example for orchestration
  • Troubleshooting section with common issues and solutions
  • Debugging tips for development

Code Quality

  • All code examples have been verified to compile and work correctly
  • Proper imports and syntax throughout all examples
  • Consistent formatting and clear comments
  • Realistic connection strings that match actual usage patterns

The documentation now transforms from a minimal 31-line file to a comprehensive 214-line guide that properly explains the library's capabilities, provides multiple working examples, and helps users integrate it effectively into their projects.
