Provide example xDAQ XML configuration files

Summary

[Issue originally opened on GitHub.]

Currently, no example xDAQ configuration file is provided. This increases the barrier to start xDAQ applications, particularly for new developers in their local installation.

As suggested on GitHub by @mdalchen, two main solutions can be devised:

  1. Provide an example configuration file a part of gemsupervisor which is the entry point;
  2. Host the configuration on the documentation website (may be more difficult to update).

Related to #15 (closed).

What is the current behavior?

Neither an example nor documentation about the xDAQ configuration is provided.

What is the expected correct behavior?

Such documentation should be provided and maintained up-to-date, ideally along with example configuration files. Temporarily a working configuration has been uploaded to the snippet $1152.
