Update readme for NPM

NPM "Proxy Hosts" page is only for http/https 80/443 - it is not possible to add a name such as "matrix.example.com:port".

Instead, the Streams page might work for what is intended here (federation traffic) - to proxy stream anything on 8448 to 8449.

Also note, NPM would need to be configured for whatever other services you are using. For example, you would need to create additional proxy hosts for `element.example.com` or `jitsi.example.com`, which would use the forwarding port `81`.
