Tidy up requires/entrypoints/install docs
- Realized at this date that _moving_ Ed25519 deps behind an entrypoint
is going the wrong direction, that key type should be used _more_ now,
not _less_. I no longer even remember why folks were pissy about
pynacl/bcrypt exactly.
- We can in fact just use ed25519 from cryptography itself now, so no
more pynacl anyways (but still bcrypt)
- Twiddle install language a bit re: invoke used in more places, and
again removing the notes about ed25519 being special
