Look into compiling rip for the RIO #100

Use that for deploys instead of pip? It's supposed to be way faster.

Compiled it using cargo build --target=arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi --no-default-features --release, turns out it's not a general purpose replacement for pip yet. It can only install into a clean virtualenv.

In theory, the rip binary is just a thin layer on top of the underlying package installation logic, but someone would need to sit down and write something that met our requirements.
