doc: add much-needed accuracy to pip installation instructions [skip ci]
- mention installing from local sources, not PyPI
- warn against --user installs, which too often screw up users that then
cannot install projects because ~/.local won't be in sudo's PYTHONPATH
- advise installing with sudo -- current versions of pip assume --user
for you rather than failing with permission errors, which is great
unless, like meson, there are compelling reasons to need to install as
root
