Don't require reinstallation of PyChapel when .chpl files are updated #77

Apparently, one cannot, should not, and is morally reprehensible should one attempt to modify .chpl source files between python runs.

Lydia phrased it thusly:

you need to reinstall the pyChapel module, because it copied them to a location where it would expect to look for them and uses the cached copy when it re-compiles

cached versions of compiled .chpl source files should get replaced when the source file is more recent than the compiled version
