Add a minimal "hello jupyter book" example

See original GitHub issue

I love this project and I am grateful to the people working on it. But my experience getting started has been really frustrating.

I like that there is a command that creates a template, but it creates a lot of things I don’t need, so the first thing I have to do is remove them.

What would help me more is a “hello world” example that contains the absolute minimum book structure. If I’m right, that would involve just _toc.yml, _config.yml and a content file.

It took me a lot of trial and error (and some incomprehensible error messages) to get a minimal book working.
