measurement precision: readme update
Browse filesI added a footnote saying the measurements are upto 3 decimal places, and mentioned that one can use the columns px_<measurement> and px_scalebar to obtain higher precision. [Line 101 to 106]

<a name="footnote1">1</a>: The measurement is up to 3 decimal places. To get measurements with more numerical precision (i.e. additional decimal places), use this equation: `cm_<measurement>` = `px_<measurement>`/`px_scalebar`.
