example was incorrect

the example event id had 21 leading zeroes, not 20

I provided new C code that has been tested to work (I couldn't get the original example code to work) and I provided some JavaScript code to test event ids as well.

I did not re-compute the event id for the example event; I simply changed the nonce to be 21. Since it is an example, it may not matter that the event id is not correct.

 `difficulty` is defined to be the number of leading zero bits in the `NIP-01` id. For example, an id of `000000000e9d97a1ab09fc381030b346cdd7a142ad57e6df0b46dc9bef6c7e2d` has a difficulty of `36` with `36` leading 0 bits.
 
+`002f...` is `0000 0000 0010 1111...` in binary, which has 10 leading zeroes. Do not forget to count leading zeroes for hex digits <= `7`.
