sle44xx: extend the README for the SLE4442 captures

Create a README in the sle44xx/ parent directory, discuss the chip
family's features, and reference the Siemens datasheet. Extend the
README for the SLE4442 captures, don't assume that all users are
familiar with the chips and their protocol. The example dumps also
serve for learning and exploration of the curious. Fixup the probe
names (according to --show their names are in the 0..7 range).

+Siemens SLE44xx Chip Card Protocol
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+SLE 4418/4428/4432/4442 memory cards implement a 2-wire protocol for data
+communication (signals CLK and I/O). A RST signal can be used to terminate
+currently pending long memory reads, and resets the card's address counter
+when combined with CLK. The next response data then is the Answer to Reset
+(ATR) which identifies the chip's capabilities, and allows to adjust for
+subsequent communication of more requests.
