Quentin Schulz b70aeb3af5 README: update instructions for installing vale and sphinx-lint
pip install won't work on recent Debian distros (and Debian-based ones
I'm assuming as well) and will suggest using pipx instead.

In any case, pip and pipx aren't actually that user-friendly to us for
the simple reason the instructions to build the documentation, c.f.
documentation/tools/host_packages_scripts/pip3_docs.sh, make use of a
virtual environment which doesn't have access to the host system's
Python modules (missing --system-site-packages). So you would need to
chose between building the docs and running vale/sphinx-lint but not
both at the same time.

Instead, update the instructions to use pipenv for stylecheck and
sphinx-lint make targets such that there's a setup in which one can
build the docs AND run those commands without doing some back and forth
between venvs or host packages and the venv.
