Example of EIP-1559 Transfer for ERC20 token

[innerop]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• [X] I have searched the existing issues

What would you like to say about Web3.js' documentation?

This particular example of an EIP-1559 transaction to transfer ER20 token from one address to another, which should be very common (e.g. for sending USDC), is not covered in the docs and I googled the entire web with no results. Can you please help?

We should add this in 4.x docs

Add a tutorial and add it to the SmartContract section. Also refer to - https://docs.web3js.org/guides/basics/eth/#eip-1559-transaction

The structure for this doc would be as follows

• The need for eip1559
• Brief about gas fee changes due to eip1159
• Example of a simple transaction with a walkthrough(tutorial)

Is this acceptable?
