Improve documentation on SBT dependencies #1194

Description

I had to spend >= 30min to figure out that I needed the following dependencies to run what the docs currently claim to only need finch-circe and 2 imports:

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  "com.github.finagle" %% "finchx-core" % "0.31.0",
  "com.github.finagle" %% "finchx-circe" % "0.31.0",
  "io.circe" %% "circe-generic" % "0.12.3"
)

I found the above dependencies in the finch/finch.g8 repo, however a) I had to look in a build.sbt in some sub^n-directory and b) it did not contain versions, so I had to look them up manually on Maven central.

Apparently, #1022 had a very similar issue. There it reads that "Finch is very unfriendly with first time users". Unfortunately, it seems it still is to some extent. Let's improve that 😄
