pypi is only for stable releases.

In principle we could make "pip install yt" grab all of yt's dependencies
if they are not installed via the install_requires and setup_requires
arguments provided by setuptools, but that's separate from John's work on
nightly builds.

In practice, the last time I tried to get install_requires working there
were issues with our use of numpy.distutils that made it not work
correctly.  This is probably worth looking into again.
