docs: Add link to start PM with BotFather user
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This commit adds a new step to creating a Telegram user. Per
@nic-hartley's feedback, this was not intuitive to a new Telegram user.
Adding this to the docs should make it more clear and document this
"hidden" step.
