docs(examples): add index README for examples directory

[LeonSGP43]

What

Adds examples/README.md indexing the three examples: libsy.py (keyless libsy streaming demo), experimental/litellm/, and prometheus/.

Why

The examples directory has no entry point — prometheus/ and experimental/litellm/ have their own READMEs, but nothing tells a newcomer that libsy.py runs without any provider API keys (it uses the in-file EchoClient).

Verification

Content sourced from examples/libsy.py (the EchoClient and algorithms.random usage) and the two sub-READMEs.

Walkthrough

Added examples/README.md with an overview of runnable examples and instructions for running the libsy.py example with uv.

Changes

Examples documentation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Document runnable examples examples/README.md	Adds an examples overview table, libsy.py execution instructions, API-key requirements, and links to related README files.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~2 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to adace

This change only adds an examples index, with minor documentation wording and usage-context follow-up needed; it introduces no product or production behavior risk and is otherwise merge-ready after normal review.

Poem

A rabbit hops through examples bright,
With uv commands tucked in sight.
No keys for libsy, hop and run,
Links guide each example one by one.
Documentation blooms in code’s moonlight.

Change “recording and alert rules” to “scrape configuration and alert rules.” The directory contains scrape configuration and alert rules only; switchyard.rules.yaml has no record entries.
