Fixes #593.

Updated installation documentation to include a note on setuptools dependency, ensuring comprehensive guidance for all user environments. setuptools is a key package in Python used for building, distributing, and installing packages. It is not part of the Python Standard Library, but it is included with most Python distributions, such as the official Python distributions from python.org, Anaconda, and others.

For most users, especially those using Python distributions intended for application development and data science, setuptools will be pre-installed, making it seem like it's a default part of Python. However, in minimal or custom Python environments, setuptools might not be included by default and may need to be installed separately using package management tools like pip.
