Update instructions for changing icons and using custom images in competitive sites section (#413)
* Update instructions for changing icons and using custom images in competitive sites section - Updated the README to provide clearer guidance on how to change icons in the Basic Qualification and Certifications section using Simple Icons. - Added step-by-step instructions for replacing icons via `iconifyClassname`. - Included instructions for using custom images via the `imageSrc` attribute, including details about file placement and styling. - Clarified the precedence of `imageSrc` over `iconifyClassname` when both are present. - This improves developer experience by making customization more intuitive. See PR #410 for related changes. * docs:Change grammatical mistakes in README

### How to Change the Icons on Education page under Basic Qualification and Certifications?
108+
109+
1. The icons for this section are pulled from the `competitiveSites` array in the `portfolio.js` file.
110+
2. Visit the [Simple Icons website](https://simpleicons.org/).
111+
3. Search for the competitive site you want to add an icon for.
112+
4. Select the icon you want to use.
113+
5. Copy the text beside Selected Icon and replace it with iconifyClassname of that particular competitive site.
114+
115+
### How to Use Custom Images Instead of Simple Icons for Competitive Sites
116+
117+
1. Place the custom image file in the `public/skills` folder.
118+
2. Update the `imageSrc` attribute of the corresponding competitive site with the name of your custom image (e.g., `imageSrc: "customImage.png"`).
119+
3. Remove the `iconifyClassname` property or leave it empty, as the `imageSrc` property takes precedence over `iconifyClassname`.
120+
4. Optionally, add custom styling to the `<img>` tag using the `style` property to adjust size, positioning, etc.
