Change the documentation now that archinstall is on the official repositories
Changed README.md to not use sudo pip anymore and point users to use pacman instead. We go into more detail on the docs. Changed binary.rst to point to the official repositories too. Changed python.rst to point to using the official repositories for the installation of both the archinstall script or for just installing the library (archinstall depends on python-archinstall).
