Added instructions for decreasing Shell load times with NVM

Browse Source 
Currently, adding nvm instructions to profile files causes the shell to load slower than it should. Adding a different method to load nvm will make sure this problem doesn't arise.

#### Decreased Shell Load Times
Adding the above 2 lines can cause the shell to have increased load times. To circumvent this problem, you can add these lines in your profile file (`~/.bash_profile`, `~/.zshrc`, `~/.profile`, or `~/.bashrc`) instead.
```bash
export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" # This loads nvm bash_completion
alias nvm="unalias nvm; [ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && . "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"; nvm $@"
```
This makes sure that nvm only loads when you try to use it and not cause the shell to wait for nvm to load everytime you start the shell.
#### Additional Notes
- If the environment variable `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is present, it will place the `nvm` files there.</sub>
