Merge #1378: Update bdk README

06d7dc5 doc(bdk): Update bdk README (vmammal)

Pull request description:

  fixes #1044

  ### Notes

  The code snippet is a compile fail because variables `txout` and `outpoint` are not initialized. Any other suggestions are welcome.

  There is still some old commented code in the file that's probably not needed unless we want to provide another example snippet, say for getting new address info.

  * [x] Fix broken links
  * [x] Use a new unused tprv
  * [ ] Try to make persistence example make sense, or maybe just do away with it

  #### All Submissions:

  * [x] I've signed all my commits
  * [x] I followed the [contribution guidelines](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
  * [x] I ran `cargo fmt` and `cargo clippy` before committing

+The `bdk` crate provides the [`Wallet`] type which is a simple, high-level
 interface built from the low-level components of [`bdk_chain`]. `Wallet` is a good starting point
 for many simple applications as well as a good demonstration of how to use the other mechanisms to
 construct a wallet. It has two keychains (external and internal) which are defined by
 [miniscript descriptors][`rust-miniscript`] and uses them to generate addresses. When you give it
 chain data it also uses the descriptors to find transaction outputs owned by them. From there, you
 can create and sign transactions.
 
-For more information, see the [`Wallet`'s documentation](https://docs.rs/bdk/latest/bdk/wallet/struct.Wallet.html).
+For details about the API of `Wallet` see the [module-level documentation][`Wallet`].
 
 ### Blockchain data
 
-In order to get blockchain data for `Wallet` to consume, you have to put it into particular form.
-Right now this is [`KeychainScan`] which is defined in [`bdk_chain`].
-
-This can be created manually or from blockchain-scanning crates.
+In order to get blockchain data for `Wallet` to consume, you should configure a client from
+an available chain source. Typically you make a request to the chain source and get a response
+that the `Wallet` can use to update its view of the chain.
 
 **Blockchain Data Sources**
 
 * [`bdk_esplora`]: Grabs blockchain data from Esplora for updating BDK structures.
 * [`bdk_electrum`]: Grabs blockchain data from Electrum for updating BDK structures.
+* [`bdk_bitcoind_rpc`]: Grabs blockchain data from Bitcoin Core for updating BDK structures.
 
 **Examples**
 
-* [`example-crates/wallet_esplora`](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk/tree/master/example-crates/wallet_esplora)
+* [`example-crates/wallet_esplora_async`](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk/tree/master/example-crates/wallet_esplora_async)
+* [`example-crates/wallet_esplora_blocking`](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk/tree/master/example-crates/wallet_esplora_blocking)

+* [`example-crates/wallet_rpc`](https://github.com/bitcoindevkit/bdk/tree/master/example-crates/wallet_rpc)
 
 ### Persistence
 
-To persist the `Wallet` on disk, `Wallet` needs to be constructed with a
-[`Persist`](https://docs.rs/bdk_chain/latest/bdk_chain/keychain/struct.KeychainPersist.html) implementation.
+To persist the `Wallet` on disk, it must be constructed with a [`PersistBackend`] implementation.
 
 **Implementations**
 
-* [`bdk_file_store`]: a simple flat-file implementation of `Persist`.
+* [`bdk_file_store`]: A simple flat-file implementation of [`PersistBackend`].
 
 **Example**
 
-```rust
-use bdk::{bitcoin::Network, wallet::{AddressIndex, Wallet}};
+<!-- compile_fail because outpoint and txout are fake variables -->
+```rust,compile_fail
+use bdk::{bitcoin::Network, wallet::{ChangeSet, Wallet}};
 
 fn main() {
-    // a type that implements `Persist`
-    let db = ();
+    // Create a new file `Store`.
+    let db = bdk_file_store::Store::<ChangeSet>::open_or_create_new(b"magic_bytes", "path/to/my_wallet.db").expect("create store");
