Kubilay Kocak d503aae1cb devel/py-pip: Add pkg-message user WARNING
Add a pkg-message warning users not to use pip to install packages in
the system-wide Python environment location. This should have been done
a long time ago.

While I'm here:

- Add LICENSE_FILE
- Enable NO_ARCH
- Match *_DEPENDS versions to those in setup.py
- Fix incorrect pytest-xdist package name match

============================== !!!! WARNING !!!! ==========================
pip MUST ONLY be used:
* With the --user flag, OR
* To install or manage Python packages in virtual environments
Failure to follow this warning can and will result in an inconsistent
system-wide Python environment (LOCALBASE/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages) and
cause errors.
Avoid using pip as root unless you know what you're doing.
