Closes #706 (first question).

The maintainer answered "What is system ?" in #706 (comment):

System is a generic term for the context where the username and password are relevant. It might be a computer's hostname, a URL, a service (like PyPI or NPM), or any other string to identify the context.

This adds a short paragraph after the basic usage example that turns that answer into README guidance, since new users routinely ask what system means.

The change is documentation-only (no news fragment, matching #724).
