Possible error in project start docs #169

Description

@tloredo

The "Install your new package" section of the Starting a new project page starts with this:

>> cd {{project_name}}

I believe that is incorrect. It should be:

>> cd {{project directory}}

That is, the project's directory is not (necessarily) the same as the project_name defined during the copier session defining the project.

At the top of the Starting a new project page is this copier command:

>> copier gh:lincc-frameworks/python-project-template <path/to/destination>

It's that <path/to/destination> where the cd command should aim to place the user.

In the case of my first project, my directory takes the name of the software project I'm working on (from a third part): SOAP-GPU (an acronym). That's not even a possible project_name (because caps are forbidden from project names).
