rename our local build of 'tables' to use package name pytables #38

This is very confusing, what is the package name for pytables? The website reports pytables, but on pypi, it is tables, and that is what we've done for a while - but conda uses pytables. This creates problems, because if someone tries to meet psana-conda's dependencies by putting their own pytables in, we still install our tables.

I made this issue

https://github.com/ContinuumIO/anaconda-issues/issues/1229

but I think conda has it correct, somebody made a mistake when they used the import name, tables, for the pypi package name.
