[DOCS] Improved README.md wording (#683)

Initial wording dates from a time where nobody knew Triton, and
comparing it to CUDA helped differentiate it from other existing DSLs.
But nowadays this comparison doesn't make much sense; Triton is its own
thing, and some people may even still be more productive in CUDA than
Triton -- language preferences are subjective after all.

# Triton # Triton
This is the development repository of Triton, a language and compiler for writing highly efficient custom Deep-Learning primitives. The aim of Triton is to provide an open-source environment to write fast code at higher productivity than CUDA, but also with higher flexibility than other existing DSLs. This is the development repository of Triton, a language and compiler for writing highly efficient custom Deep-Learning primitives. The aim of Triton is to provide an open-source environment for expressing tensor math workloads that offers high flexibility, developer productivity and end to end performance.
