clarify getting started docs for cases where psiturk is running on remote server #63

I have psiturk running on a remote server that I SSH into. When I went to test the example experiment, it was unclear how to get a debug version that worked on a remote machine. Eventually I found the debug --p option, which works well. The wiki page might mention this since the remote server situation is probably a common one.

Yes, agreed. BTW, we welcome changes to the wiki... turns out anyone can edit them even without making a pull request. Also, since I'm mostly running locally, helpful to have bug reports like this for remote running issues, so thanks!

In addition to mention this along with the debug command, might be useful to have a "Running on a remote server" section that details any other things you might need to know.
