Readme updates for QL-800

Browse Source 
This seems to work fine on the QL-800, thanks! I've added a tick against
it.

I've also slightly updated the help for `brother_ql_create` to make it
clear that you have to enable the --red option to print on tape which
supports red, otherwise the printer reports an error.

(This happens with the P-Touch software too and it's really unclear what
you're doing wrong.)

If your printer has problems printing the instructions file, it may blink its LED (green or red) depending on the model. This can have many reasons, eg.:
* The selected label doesn't match.
* The selected label doesn't match (make sure `--red` has been passed to `brother_ql_create` if you're using black/red labels).
* End of paper.
* Unsupported opcode (wrong `--model` when using `brother_ql_create`?)
