Rename lite-server to identify it as a quick, easy, simple, demo server not for production use

See original GitHub issue

There has been confusion on the purpose of lite-server. We get asked about using lite-server with IIS, using it to be a full fledged production server, how to deploy it. lite-server is intended to be a server for:

demo use
quick and easy server without having to write any server code
help you focus on writing client code

It is not intended for anything beyond this.

Perhaps we should rename it to demo-server ?

I don’t think you need to cater to developers that don’t read.

I agree … i opened this issue partially to remind myself to make it even clearer in the README file and partially to make it more discoverable that this is not a production server 😃
