Starterkit Improvements [#3498228]

Motivation

The Starterkit is a really good base to set up a project fast and there are some improvements which would make nifty and helpful additions such as

Improving the structure of the README.md file
Adding some scripts along with the necessary DDEV commands and Lando toolings to automate tedious, repetitive tasks

Proposed resolution

Improvements to README.md

The README.md file has been slighty restructured for better readability and the following sections have been added:

Installation Requirements
Regular DDEV commands
Script: A table with scripts which can be invoked by a DDEV command or Lando tooling
Routing and Nginx Configuration

Addition of new scripts

Some nifty scripts from a different customer project have been added which helped automate tedious tasks such as

Regenerating the Nginx configurations wich just one command/tooling.
Check and update locales (translations) locally or on the server.
Re-indexing Search API indices right from the CLI.
Composer Update Info: A small command to display which Composer package can be updated and if it patched.

I really like the improvements to the README but I would not add the additional scripts. The scripts are super cool but they don't really fit in the scope of a starterkit. They would fit better in a BLT-like project intended for mature websites which are already in production. Also I think most developers will have their own collection of scripts tailored to their own preferences.
