"Introduction to Panda3D" needs update/rewrite

[treamology]

The page "Introduction to Panda3D" could use a good look-over. I don't like the section about Panda3D not being a beginner's tool/toy; it seems quite alienating and slightly pretentious sounding.

Additionally, the section stating Panda is primarily maintained by Disney needs changing. If I recall correctly, they don't have much to do with it anymore.

I think it's intended to be a little alienating; it seems to me that it was created with the intent of deterring people without programming ability to ensure we don't get inundated with support requests from people expecting a Unity-esque drag-and-drop experience.

I know that this issue is old but I will say that I didn't use Panda3D for awhile because I was put off by the "Panda3D is not a Beginner’s Tool or a Toy". After reading that section I wrongly assumed that the community was going be toxic and generally not a nice place to be, which couldn't be further from the truth. So it is important to at least rewrite this section so no one else makes the same assumptions.

Instead of trying to deterringbeginners from using the engine the docs should try to be more inviting for Panda3D's target audience: people who want a programming framework that's well maintained, is feature full, has a friendly community, is simple, and that lets them create games and other applications the way they want.

But those are just my 2 cents. :)

That's a good point, we can reword it using positive language (what Panda is and who it is for) instead of negative language (what it isn't).

As per my PR #131 I have adjusted the Introduction to Panda3D section so it flows better and is closer to the community values set forth on the get-involved page.
