Revised three options: usesmallcapitalsintitle, usesectionslide and nototalslides.

README.md:
- Added explanation for these three options.
beamerthemem:
- Renamed all three options:
  * usesmallcapitalsintitle -> nosmallcapitals
  * usesectionslide -> nosectionslide
  * nototalslides -> usetotalslideindicator
- Disabled all options by default. I.e., you have to enable them explicitly.

 slide, this can be turned off at the package-level by passing the
 `nooffset` option.
 
+With option `nosectionslide`, no dedicated slide is produced when a new section
+starts. By default when using the `\section` command, a slide is created with
+just the title on it.
+
+The `nosmallcapitals` option supresses the usage of small capitals on
+title page, frame titles and dedicated section slides.
+
+Option `usetotalslideindicator` creates slide numbering in lower right corner
+in following format: #current/#total. By default, just current page number is
+printed.
