README: correct the architecture diagram's capture paths

The diagrams conflated the SIMtrace2 hardware with the sniffer that reads it
and omitted the original Osmocom simtrace2-sniff: they showed
simtrace2-pysniff feeding the GSMTAP listener with the hardware only as its
subtitle, and a second, unexplained "SIMtrace2 hardware / direct USB" box.

The diagrams now show the device -> sniffer -> GSMTAP relationship explicitly:
SIMtrace2 hardware is read either by simtrace2-pysniff or by the original
simtrace2-sniff, and FX2 hardware by the sigrok_iso7816_stream decoder; the
sniffers/decoder stream GSMTAP-SIM to the UDP :4729 listener.  The direct USB
path is drawn separately from the device to the server and is labelled
"pysniff code in-process": --capture direct uses the bundled
simtrace2_pysniff package (DirectSniffer -> SniffSession) inside the server
process, not the simtrace2-pysniff CLI, and bypasses GSMTAP.  PCAP/COMPRION
import, SQLite and the browser UI keep their places.

The READMEs' alt text, the first-run capture-mode notes and the Usage command
comments now name the original simtrace2-sniff as a GSMTAP source and say the
direct mode runs the bundled sniffer code inside the server.

Both languages; 558 Python + 80 Node tests; runtime zip still carries both
diagrams and the README image guard passes.
