Description

Updates the installation guide to lead with pip now that PyMC v6 compiles with the Numba
backend by default (no compiler/BLAS needed).
Recommends pip install "pymc[nutpie]" as the default, since nutpie is selected
as the default NUTS sampler automatically when installed. conda is kept as a
documented alternative, and the JAX-sampler install commands were switched to pip.
