Many users of this repository will be used to the go-doc approach taken by opentelemetry-go: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-go/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#documentation

We should try to follow this as well to provide a good experience. Concretely, this entails:

write example_test.go files to provide examples for all (or at least major) public functions
Use doc.go, rather than README.md files to document packages.
