Update documentation to read from project perspective

[jaredpetersen]

There's a couple of sections in the documentation that reads as if this is something that only a single person works on:

README.md

When I was working on a Zipkin PR I discovered a nice Java library called Testcontainers.
It provides an easy and clean API over the go docker sdk to run, terminate and connect to containers in your tests.
I found myself comfortable programmatically writing the containers I need to run an integration/smoke tests. So I started porting this library in Go.

docs/features/creating_container.md

When I have to describe TestContainer I say: "it is a wrapper around the docker daemon designed for tests."

---

I think it would be more appropriate to update the language to take more of a project perspective rather than from a single person. Here's a sample rewrite of the opening passage of the README:

Testcontainers-Go is a package that makes it simple to set up container-based dependencies for automated integration/smoke tests. The clean, easy-to-use API enables users to programmatically define containers that should be run as part of a test and clean up those resources when the test is done.

I'd be happy to put up a PR for this and other documentation-related issues. I think expanding the documentation and doing things like this would do a lot for the project.

PS -- I'd just like to say that I really appreciate the work that everyone has put in here. I'm a fan of Testcontainers on Java and was super happy to see that there was a Go equivalent. 🙂

Hey @jaredpetersen, indeed. I'd say that we can start working on a revamp of the docs, aligned with what you proposed in #112 (comment)

We are happy to help with the reviews finding the right alignment

I updated the description to include a section to auto close related issues

I think we can close this issue, as #353 was merged, so that the docs use a project-style instead of a personal one.

Thanks for the work here!
