Add explanation of where the ibazel binary lives to the README #114

Description

These are the current installation instructions:

Compile the //ibazel target inside this repo and copy the source file onto your $PATH.

For a developer new to the bazel ecosystem, this isn't very approachable. There are a lot of missing steps.

This would be more helpful:

  1. Install bazel from the GET BAZEL link on bazel.build

  2. Clone this repo
    git clone https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel-watcher.git

  3. Build this repo

    cd bazel-watcher
    bazel build //ibazel
    
  4. Add the ibazel binary to your path (for instance, in ~/.bashrc).

    The binary will be in an architecture-specific folder inside bazel-out; for instance: /Projects/bazel-watcher/bazel-out/darwin_x86_64-fastbuild/bin/ibazel/
