Add documentation (maybe vignette) covering how to run the PDAL pipelines #4

Closed bmcgaughey1 closed 2 years ago

This will be a little sticky since you have to work outside of R to run the pipelines. I have developed code that can run the pipelines from a python instance in R using the reticulate package but this capability is not included in the USGSlidar package.

I added a link to the README page for the instructions describing the process to install and configure conda. This includes creating an environment and installing PDAL.
