docs: refresh README for bounded whole-genome variants --index - #20
Merged
Conversation
Foregrounds the now-real flagship capability (Phase B4): bounded whole-genome germline calling from a portable index + a coordinate-sorted BAM, with a verifiable memory receipt. Adds an accessible plain-language lead (what it is, why it matters, who it's for), the index->sort->variants --index flagship workflow, an accurate single-contig vs whole-genome scope section, and an updated roadmap (Phase A+B done; C = budget enforcement / plan / verify; aligner-over-index + sublinear-space construction later). Corrects the stale 'wiring variants is a later phase' text. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Refreshes the README to clearly and accurately reflect the current system after Phase B4 (PR #19), and to make the high-level story accessible to builders.
