Install instructions for aider-ce as a tool #55

Issue

I run aider-ce through emacs with aidermacs and I've run into environment issues as I change conda environments in emacs. Aider used aider-install to set up a dedicated uv environment for aider with the required python version and makes this available at ~/.local/bin (on my machine). This made aider usable regardless of the development environment.

It probably isn't necessary to have a separate aider-ce-install package to set this up since aider-install is basically just running uv tool install --python python3.12 aider-chat. It would be useful to include instructions on installing aider-ce as a tool instead of as a package, which would make it usable globally without polluting dev environments.

uv tool install --python python3.12 aider-ce worked for me.
