Advertise the existence of the pyvcp utility in the examples/documentation #4300

Description

@dirkx

Perhaps useful to mention in a few places, but specifically on

  https://linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gui/pyvcp-examples.html

that you can directly run/test a panel with the command pyvcp without even wiring it up to any hal. E.g. write the cannonical hello_world.xml

<pyvcp>
  <vbox>
    <label>
      <text>"Hello CNC"</text>
    </label>
  </vbox>
</pyvcp>

to a file and then do `pyvcp hello_world.xml' for the simplest of examples:

Reason for this - it takes out also having to get hal right/working & makes the debug cycle very fast.
