Misc improvements (#674)

I haven't tried this tool yet, but it looks great!

While reading the README, I found some errors, so I fixed them.

There is one sentence that is still unclear because I'm not sure what you meant:
*"I prepared a disk and performed a test without any folder exceptions and with disabled ignoring of hard links."*

Did you mean that you specified to ignore hard links or that you specified to follow hard links?

**Czkawka** (_tch•kav•ka_ (IPA: [ʈ͡ʂkafka]), "hiccup" in Polish) is a simple, fast and free app to remove unnecessary files from your computer.
## Features
- Written in memory safe Rust
- Written in memory-safe Rust
- Amazingly fast - due to using more or less advanced algorithms and multithreading
- Free, Open Source without ads
- Multiplatform - works on Linux, Windows, macOS, FreeBSD and many more
- Cache support - second and further scans should be a lot faster than the first one
- Cache support - second and further scans should be much faster than the first one
- CLI frontend - for easy automation
- GUI frontend - uses modern GTK 3 and looks similar to FSlint
- No spying - Czkawka does not have access to the Internet, nor does it collect any user information or statistics

## Other apps
There are many similar applications to Czkawka on the Internet, which do some things better and some things worse:
### GUI
- [DupeGuru](https://github.com/arsenetar/dupeguru) - A lot of options to customize, great photo compare tool
- [DupeGuru](https://github.com/arsenetar/dupeguru) - Many options to customize; great photo compare tool
- [FSlint](https://github.com/pixelb/fslint) - A little outdated, but still have some tools not available in Czkawka
- [AntiDupl.NET](https://github.com/ermig1979/AntiDupl) - Shows a lot of metadata of compared images
- [Video Duplicate Finder](https://github.com/0x90d/videoduplicatefinder) - Finds similar videos(surprising, isn't it), supports video thumbnails
### CLI
Due to limited time, the biggest emphasis is on the GUI version so if you are looking for really good and feature-packed console apps, then take a look at these:
- [Fclones](https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones) - One of the fastest tools to find duplicates, it is written also in Rust
- [Fclones](https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones) - One of the fastest tools to find duplicates; it is written also in Rust
- [Rmlint](https://github.com/sahib/rmlint) - Really good console interface and also is feature packed
- [RdFind](https://github.com/pauldreik/rdfind) - Fast, but written in C++ ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯
