Upgrade instructions

From #6090 (Bump pybind11 version, include in Py dependencies, support pathlib.Path):

Pybind11 version 2.7+ is required now. To upgrade, run pip install -r support/Python/requirements.txt in your Python environment.

From #6118 (Control BBH masses and spins in initial data):

If calling generate_id or id_parameters from InitialData.py, you now need to specify the masses mass_a and mass_b separately instead of the previous mass_ratio. Note that generate_id_command still takes in mass_ratio as an argument.

From #5999 (Redesign step/slab size changing):

When changing slab sizes, including step size with global time-stepping, some effects now only change the size for a single step, after which the step will revert to the previous value. These include the StepChoosers documented as limiting the step (as opposed to setting a goal) and the GTS control-system step limit.

The "Increase" StepChooser has been renamed to "LimitIncrease" to reflect this change, and "Constant" has been split into "Constant", which sets a goal, and "Maximum", which does not. Check the documentation or help text to see which type of change other StepChoosers now apply.

From #6120 (Fix unit conversions between SpECTRE and RotNS for non-polytropic EoS):

If you use RotatingStar with polytropic EoSs, nothing changes for you, the input file works the same.

If you use some other EoS, instead of using the PolytropicConstant input option, you should use EquationOfState followed by the equation of state with which you would like to initialize the data.

From #6164 (Remove IWYU):

Removed include-what-you-use (IWYU) as a dependency.
