Simon Hausmann 8f9a723e75 C++ docs: Add a getting started section
This combines the tutorial sub-section from the intro (a bit weird as sub-section there)
and the usage part of the cmake section into a getting started that
has a complete little C++ example.

Introduction

SixtyFPS is a UI toolkit that supports different programming languages. SixtyFPS C++ is the C++ API to interact with a SixtyFPS UI from C++.

The user interfaces are written in the .60 design markup language.

You can create and edit .60 files using our SixtyFPS Visual Studio Code Extension, which features syntax highlighting and live design preview.

For a quick edit and preview cycle, you can also use the sixtyfps-viewer command line tool, which can be installed using cargo install sixtyfps-viewer, if you have Cargo installed.

In the next section you will learn how to install the SixtyFPS C++ library and the CMake build system integration.
