Use sys.executable instead of hardcoded 'python' as interpreter path #36

One of the situations in which using a hardcoded path fails is when blobtools is run from a virtualenv that is not activated. Another case would be Linux distributions that have 'python' be Python 3 by default.

With this change ,we would be able to install blobtools on our cluster more easily since we use un-activated virtualenvs for the modules.

Hi Marcelm, these are good points. will check how it behaves on different systems and merge it in if everything works.

cheers,
