Chris Lane f46698b656 Performed a large refactoring
Performed an extensive refactoring on the entire application for the
sake of code-cleanliness.

- Refactored out of an ad-hoc Imperative paradigm into more of a
  functional/declarative paradigm. IMO, this makes the application
  signifcantly easier to understand.

- Moved away from `argparse` and into `docopt` for argument parsing

- Version bump to 2.0.0

- Performed extensive refactoring on the setup.py script. Script should
  install to the system more cleanly now.

- Made minor formatting changes to the --list flag output

- Updated the README

Squashed commit of the following:

# You can't directly install packages from the Arch User Database (AUR) with pacman.

# Installing a package from AUR is a relatively simple process:
# - Retrieve the archive corresponding to your package from AUR website
# - Extract the archive (preferably in a folder for this purpose)
# - Run makepkg in the extracted directory. (makepkg-s allows you to install any dependencies automatically from deposits.)
# - Install the package created using pacman
# Assuming $pkgname contains the package name.
wget "https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/${pkgname::2}/$pkgname/$pkgname.tar.gz"
tar zxvf "$pkgname.tar.gz"
cd "$pkgname"
# Build the package

# Install
