See https://getcomposer.org/, https://packagist.org/ and Wikipedia.

Can you reply a link to a composer.json example file on GitHub...

[rugk]

I think there are already many example files, but here you go:

• https://github.com/rugk/threema-msgapi-sdk-php/blob/master/composer.json
• https://github.com/paragonie/halite/blob/master/composer.json

I'm new to this composer...

• Is the file always called composer.json?
• What first-level key does this userscript has to look for? I couldn't find any of the supported keys.
• Which domain has to be used for linking?

Generally I'd recommend having a look here: https://getcomposer.org/doc/04-schema.md
More details about the format you can also find here: https://packagist.org/

About your questions:

Is the file always called composer.json?

Yes.

What first-level key does this userscript has to look for? I couldn't find any of the supported keys.

I think you should look for require and other "package links".

Which domain has to be used for linking?

AFAIK always packagist.org. E.g. you can find threema-msgapi-sdk-php here.
Just note that no one requires you to publish your package to packagist.org. But honestly I don't know whether you can also publish it on other sites, but I don't think so.

BTW Composer is also on GitHub: https://github.com/composer
