chore: improve README docs, add links (#527)
This branch updates the READMEs for all Tower crates.

I've added the lib.rs docs to the `tower` crate's README, and added
crates.io, docs.rs, and updated CI badges to all the crates READMEs.
Since we no longer use Azure Pipelines for CI or Gitter for chat, I've
removed those badges and replaced them with GitHub Actions and Discord
badges, respectively.

I also fixed a typo in the `tower` lib.rs docs that was breaking some of the
RustDoc links, since I noticed it after copying those docs into the README.

Tower Layer

Decorates a Tower Service, transforming either the request or the response.

Overview

Often, many of the pieces needed for writing network applications can be reused across multiple services. The Layer trait can be used to write reusable components that can be applied to very different kinds of services; for example, it can be applied to services operating on different protocols, and to both the client and server side of a network transaction.
