Kamran Ahmed ee4b7305a2 Adds ByteByteGo guides and links (#106)
This PR adds all the guides from [Visual
Guides](https://bytebytego.com/guides/) section on bytebytego to the
repository with proper links.

- [x] Markdown files for guides and categories are placed inside
`data/guides` and `data/categories`
- [x] Guide links in readme are auto-generated using
`scripts/readme.ts`. Everytime you run the script `npm run
update-readme`, it reads the categories and guides from the above
mentioned folders, generate production links for guides and categories
and populate the table of content in the readme. This ensures that any
future guides and categories will automatically get added to the readme.
- [x] Sorting inside the readme matches the actual category and guides
sorting on production

10 years ago, Amazon found that every 100ms of latency cost them 1% in sales. Thats a staggering $5.7 billion in todays terms.
For high-scale user-facing systems, high latency is a big loss of revenue.
Here are the top strategies to reduce latency:
* **Database Indexing**
* **Caching**
* **Load Balancing**
* **Content Delivery Network**
* **Async Processing**
* **Data Compression**
