README: upgrade = extract-over-top (preserves bindings.txt + volume.cfg)

The advertised upgrade flow was delete-and-unzip, which wipes the two
per-player files (key/joystick bindings incl. joyconfig output, saved
volume) every version.  The zip carries neither file, so extract-over-
top preserves them by construction -- now the documented flow, with the
copy-out fallback for clean-delete preferrers.

Do NOT run anything from inside the zip. The .bat files must sit next
to the 'content' and 'build' folders.
UPGRADING from an older version? Extract the new zip OVER your
existing game folder and say YES TO OVERWRITE. Do NOT delete the
folder first -- your personal files (contentindings.txt with your
key/joystick setup, content olume.cfg with your volume) are not in
the zip and survive an extract-over-top, but a delete wipes them.
If you prefer a clean delete anyway, copy those two files out first
and put them back after.
