Clarify Installation Instructions in README #58

Description

@slimhk45

The README currently lists two sets of installation instructions that appear contradictory and may confuse users:

Available on PyPI

$ pip install BetterADBSync

and

PC Side

  • Install the Android SDK (the
    stand-alone Android SDK "for an existing IDE" is sufficient). Alternatively,
    some Linux distributions come with a package named like "android-tools-adb"
    that contains the required tool.
  • Make sure "adb" is in your PATH. If you use a package from your Linux
    distribution, this should already be the case; if you used the SDK, you
    probably will have to add an entry to PATH in your ~/.profile file, log out
    and log back in.
  • git clone https://github.com/google/adb-sync
  • cd adb-sync
  • Copy or symlink the adb-sync script somewhere in your PATH. For example:
    cp adb-sync /usr/local/bin/

The latter seems to be the installation method for the original ADB Sync by Google, not for Better ADB Sync. Am I right? If so it should be removed for clarity.
