Update README.md 

I've fixed a typo with the virtual environment creation and added a line to suggest you install the binary dependencies for Pillow and numpy/scipy.  We might want to mention the set up for the pi camera too.

# Installation

This module is currently in very early development, and is perhaps best installed in developer mode.

- (Recommended) create a virtual environment

    - In the openflexure-microscope-software directory, create a venv with `python3 venv env`

    - In the openflexure-microscope-software directory, create a venv with `python3 -m venv env`

    - Activate with `source env/bin/activate`

    - Install dependencies with `sudo apt-get install libatlas-base-dev libjasper-dev libjpeg-dev`

    - Install requirements with `pip install -r requirements.txt`

- Install module in developer mode by running `python3 setup.py develop`

    - Installing in developer mode allows the module to be modified by editing files directly in the openflexure-microscope-software directory.
