Doc: Create README template

There are many Qt submodules, and it would be beneficial to users if
there was a standard README template that will enable them to understand
and access the submodule content better. Currently many of the
submodules do not have README documents, or if they do, each submodule
varies vastly regarding what content is in the document. This proposed
README template is based on the Git ReadMe structure.
