Title: Added firstByAttributes() example

Whether these convenience methods that wrap the underlying methods, are worthy of the main documentation, is up for argument. I think firstByAttributes() is a common-enough requirement to have a place here, and give newbies an example of slightly more abstracted access methods than WHERE clauses. See what you think.
