doc: Add Gitter room

The Gitter room https://gitter.im/polybar/polybar should serve a similar
purpose as the IRC room with the benefit that messages persist and can
be received when offline.

From now on gitter should be the place where the polybar community
lives. Reddit is great for asking longer questions in the style of a
forum but not so great for quick back and forth conversations. IRC is
better in that aspect but has the serious downside that you have to stay
connected to get an answer and messages are not logged (only by your
client).

Both reddit and IRC are here to stay and I will still check them
regularly, but we should encourage people to join gitter.
