Description

Global installations are generally bad practice and have a high probability of conflicting with other software. The README mentions:

> Note: Please install iotedgehubdev to root on Linux/macOS (Don't use '--user' option in the 'pip install' command).

Please elaborate on the reasons for this - iotedgehubdev should support user installation, or better yet, a more sandboxed environments like a pyenv/virtualenv.
