Rewrite Textual Paint section

- Clarify the relation to the author (myself)
- Clarify the relation to JS Paint (it's not a "version" of JS Paint)
- Hide misleading MS DOS Prompt GIF (it needs a newer terminal program)
- List requirements, and command to run the program

<h2>Command-Line Version</h2>
<h2>Textual Paint</h2>
<p>
MS Paint in the terminal? Yes, it's possible!
I also made a <i>separate</i> elaborate MS Paint clone that runs in the terminal,
and edits ANSI art in addition to bitmaps.

<p>
You can install it with:
<code>pip install textual-paint</code>
</p>

<p>
And then run with simply:
<code>textual-paint</code>
</p>
<p>
Requires Python 3.10 or later, and a terminal emulator with Unicode and true color support.
<ul>
<li>Runs well in <i>Windows Terminal</i>, but not in the older <i>Windows Console</i>.</li>
<li>Runs well in <i>iTerm2</i>, but not the built in macOS <i>Terminal.app</i>.</li>
<li>Runs well in <i>GNOME Terminal</i>, and most Linux terminal emulators, but not the <i>Linux console</i>.
</li>
</ul>
