Spencer Bliven 0b438a9d2e Add scicat_client to the datacatalog module.
The script is based off the scicat_client-0.1.0 anaconda environment.
Conda does not need to be activated to run, so the pmodule simple
symlinks the entrypoint to the module bin.

# Datacatalog
## Overview
This module provides tools to interface with the Data Catalog (discovery.psi.ch).
## Installation
Run `./build <VERSION>` to install the latest version. This downloads the
latest versions of the datasetIngestor, datasetRetriever, and datasetArchiver
tools. Note that the downloads are not versioned, so make sure that the current
variant matches the installed binaries.
The `scicat_client` script is also installed. This is maintained as an anaconda
environment, then symlinked into the datacatalog pmodule. Anaconda hard-codes
the correct python interpreter, so all dependencies should resolve even though
the conda module is not activated. See
Programming/anaconda/2019.07/conda-env-defs/scicat_client for environment
installation details.
