Update README.md

The correct name of the header is 'Authorization' and not 'Authentication'. 

Tested with: 

```
curl -H "Authorization: bearer {edited}" -X POST -d " \
 { \
   \"query\": \"query { viewer { login }}\" \
 } \
" https://api.github.com/graphql
```

Previously:
```
$ curl -H "Authentication: bearer {edited}" -X POST -d " \
 { \
   \"query\": \"query { viewer { login }}\" \
 } \
" https://api.github.com/graphql
{
  "message": "This endpoint requires you to be authenticated.",
  "documentation_url": "https://docs.github.com/graphql/guides/forming-calls-with-graphql#authenticating-with-graphql"
}
```
