Adds basic installation instructions, from https://qiita.com/1024jp/items/d9a0b33ad9f574ce568d

Thank you for the PR. However, I currently want to postpone merging it because:

  1. This repository is aimed to develop the cot command separately from the CotEditor.app itself, and not to distribute directly to the users.
    1. Regarding the instruction for general uses, CotEditor has documents in the help contents bundled to CotEditor.app.
  2. Honestly, I have wanted to abandon distributing cot via homebrew for some reason. Therefore, I don't want at least to announce the instruction for homebrew installation actively.
  3. I guess the cot command will be needed to change the installation method because Python becomes not bundled to the system in the next macOS in addition to the strict security policy of the latest macOS and App Store.

Sounds fair. As for 3, I see that some other applications use shell scripts. Thanks for the beautiful editor!

Yes, that can be an option, although it is hardcore...
