* Update README.md to include no-data example

Added an example of what good and bad event files might contain.

As a less than full-time user of TB, I see this problem a lot, and I would really love to see good and bad examples so I more easily know what I'm seeing.

Alternative suggestions welcome.

* Better description of the state of the event files.

* Better explanation of empty event file

* Removing white space at the end of the line

`tensorboard --inspect --logdir DIRECTORY_PATH`

The output for an event file corresponding to a blank TensorBoard may
still sometimes show a few steps, representing a few initial events that
aren't shown by TensorBoard (for example, when using the Keras TensorBoard callback):

```
tensor
first_step 0
last_step 2
max_step 2
min_step 0
num_steps 2
outoforder_steps [(2, 0), (2, 0), (2, 0)]
```

In contrast, the output for an event file with more data might look like this:

```
tensor
first_step 0
last_step 55
max_step 250
min_step 0
num_steps 60
outoforder_steps [(2, 0), (2, 0), (2, 0), (2, 0), (50, 9), (100, 19), (150, 29), (200, 39), (250, 49)]
```

### TensorBoard is showing only some of my data, or isn't properly updating!

> **Update:** After [2.3.0 release][2-3-0], TensorBoard no longer auto reloads
