PyMOAB install uses deprecated method

Issue #154 resolved
Paul Wilson created an issue

The installation process for pyMOAB relies up running setup.py install using the setuptools package. In the past, this process installed a site.py file to automatically extend the python path to be consistent with the installation location. Updates to setuptool no longer support this, and the result is that pymoab was not found on import.

The recommended approach is to run pip install -e . instead.

This is breaking the installation of downstream tools.

This was initially added to #105, but they are probably not related.
