Send message to group

I was added an example to send a message to groups, but before that we must know the group ID (chat ID). Don't worry, I also add the functionality to help you to get that groups ID.

Here the way to get the groups info (including ID & name):

• Send a message to the API number !groups
• The API will replying with the groups info
• Use the ID to send a message
• Here the endpoint: /send-group-message
