[docs] fix install instructions for oonidata (command not found)

This ticket is a bug report in the documentation of `oonidata`

 * https://docs.ooni.org/data/oonidata/

> ...getting started is easy, run:  
> 
> ```
> pip install oonidata
> ```  
> 
> You will then be able to download measurements via:  
> 
> ```
> oonidata sync --probe-cc IT --start-day 2022-10-01 --end-day 2022-10-02 --output-dir measurements/
> ```

Unfortunately, these commands fail, as attempting to follow the above documentation produces an error.

### Problem

The following execution uses docker to *consistently* reproduce the error in Debian 12

```
sudo apt-get install docker.io
sudo bash -c 'gpasswd -a "${SUDO_USER}" docker'
su - `whoami`

docker run --rm -it --entrypoint /bin/bash debian:bookworm-slim

apt update
apt install python3-pip python3-virtualenv

python3 -m virtualenv /tmp/virtualenv
source /tmp/virtualenv/bin/activate

pip install oonidata
oonidata sync --probe-cc IT --start-day 2022-10-01 --end-day 2022-10-02 --output-dir measurements/
```

### Example

Below is an example exeuction of the above commands

```
user@disp8426:~$ sudo apt-get install docker.io
...
user@disp8426:~$ 

user@disp8426:~$ sudo bash -c 'gpasswd -a "${SUDO_USER}" docker'
Adding user user to group docker

### Solution

The problem appears to be that the `pip install oonidata` does *not* create any binary named `oonidata`

The documentation should be updated such that a user following it can install and use `oonidata`, without errors.
