readme: remove paragraph about executing clippy via "cargo run .."
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history

```

*Note:* Be sure that Clippy was compiled with the same version of rustc that cargo invokes here!

### Travis CI

You can add Clippy to Travis CI in the same way you use it locally:
