Recommend more explicit instructions on virtual environments in the readme #3

Even if students are experienced w python, will probably save instructors time to add a line like conda create --name psych101d python = 3.6

The readme definitely doesn't have complete install instructions for the local case. Three reasons:

  1. I expect most users of this repo to be Berkeley-affiliated, and so to be able to use datahub. Failing that, I expect another large fraction to use Binder.
  2. This should be compatible with either a conda or a pyenv/virtualenv setup, and I want local install users to feel comfortable using their preferred method.
  3. I don't want to maintain docs for multiple virtual environment methods.

I should also note that the actual students for the course will all be using datahub with an interact link workflow, as in the readme.
