Set up local python virtual environment

[Simon Heath]

Hi Yotam,

The tool you want to be using is `virtualenv`, which should be installed on
all the compute nodes.  Documentation is here:
https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/stable/

It allows you to easily install whatever python packages you need in a
subdirectory, so you can install things without needing root permissions.
I recommend just making a shell script for each project to create a
virtualenv with any packages you need to install.
