Migrate desiInstall to pip #167

Starting with recent versions of Python (3.[89]), python setup.py install is not producing installs that are importable, e.g. import desiutil fails. pip install --prefix ... does appear to work. desiInstall should:

Migrate to pip
Use pip install git+https://github.com/desihub/desiutil.git... instead of needing to download and open a tarball.

And don't forget to update the desiInstall.rst documentation.
