Description of proposed changes

In anticipation of v0.1.0 release, we're recommending users to just pip install pygmt (from PyPI) now instead of installing from Github.

Also warning Windows users that using GMT from conda-forge won't work and suggest workarounds. Plus put a disclaimer that the API (functions and classes) can still change in future releases.

Fixes #

Reminders

  • Run make format and make check to make sure the code follows the style guide.
  • Add tests for new features or tests that would have caught the bug that you're fixing.
  • Add new public functions/methods/classes to doc/api/index.rst.
  • Write detailed docstrings for all functions/methods.
  • If adding new functionality, add an example to docstrings or tutorials.

In anticipation of v0.1.0 release, we're recommending users to just `pip install pygmt` (from PyPI) now instead of installing from Github. Also warning Windows users that using GMT from conda-forge won't work and suggest workarounds.
Tweaking the language of our disclaimer on our main page a bit for v0.1.0. Mention that API is subject to change as per semver, until we reach v1.0.0.

Only a very minor suggestion. Otherwise, this looks good to go!
