Maybe Change the Name? #16

As this thing has developed and the coastal distance calculations have been included, it's become less focused on rivers. ...and as I become more aware of how extensively (if confusingly) developed river network navigation already is, I think it might make sense to change the name to reflect the fact that this library is not only focused on river navigation distances.

I'm thinking it should be something that points more directly toward calculating "swimmable distance" or "fish distance" (both phrases that I pull out of nowhere). I was thinking "swimpy", but that's taken. I don't know. Need to give it more thought.

Nah. It's referenced as pyriv in a paper now, so pyriv it is.
