Research direction

The change belongs in the README.md section titled 'Add parameter library generation to project', and the issue links the example to reference: example_cmake_python/CMakeLists.txt. Read that CMakeLists.txt to see how ament_cmake_python is set up, then add a short install section to the README that points to or summarizes it. Done when a reader can follow the README to set up the ament_cmake_python case without opening the example first.
