add pipx as an installation method for projects

See original GitHub issue

If you are an owner of a project or have a favorite project that is suited to be run by pipx, add instructions to the project’s README.

Let’s make pipx as ubiquitous as pip for python package installation!

Example installation text

This package can be installed and run from a temporary virtual environment with no commitment by running pipx run BINARY

This package can be globally installed using pipx, the Python binary runner.

pipx install PACKAGE

and run directly from the command line

BINARY
