I've recently set up a self-hosted canarytokens instance, and the python packages being referenced in the installation instructions not existing on Ubuntu 20.04 was one of the things I stumbled over. (The other being that setting the CANARY_ALERT_EMAIL... fields is only implicitly mentioned).

This PR fixes the broken reference by explicitly requesting python3-pip and python3-dev, which exist, install without issue, and result in a functioning canarytokens instance.

To reproduce the issue simply run sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev on any Ubuntu 20.04.

Trying to install python-pip and python-dev on Ubuntu 20.04 results in "Package python-pip is not available", and "selecting 'python-dev-is-python2' instead of 'python-dev'" respectively. Adding the explicit python3 reference fixes the issue
