[business_cycle] Unable to run any pip

[mmcky]

@Smit-create have you been able to do any testing of this wasm environment?

https://quantecon.github.io/project.lecture-wasm/

I ran business_cycles lecture and it doesn't seem to run the first code cell which are some pip installs.

Just hangs for me with no response

pip install did work for me but the next cell of imports fails with ModuleNotFoundError which I fixed by pip installing distutils. The failure on my machine is on the following cell:

>>> wb.series.info(q='GDP growth')
TypeError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
Cell In[7], line 1
----> 1 wb.series.info(q='GDP growth')

TypeError: info() got an unexpected keyword argument 'q'

This might be because of using an older version in pyodide.
