Include dash_core_components, dash_html_components in setup.py install_requires? #433

Thanks for a great tool!

Quick question about the suggested installation approach: I see in the user guide that the preferred approach is to install dash and the two component libraries separately. Is there a reason those libraries aren't included in the setup.py install_requires section?

I ask because when I went to install dash my first instinct was just pip install dash. This gave me ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dash_core_components', so my next instinct was to clone the repo and pip install -r requirements.txt (since I thought there might be lots of missing dependencies and I didn't want to install them all by hand), which sent me down a rabbit hole leading to #14 and #18.

This is definitely not a big deal, but I think it might make for a smoother user experience if pip install dash just worked.

If you're amenable, I'm happy to open a PR for this.
