Tim Abbott 5ee50cdced Install libfreetype6-dev in the development environment.
This fixes a problem where the emoji_dump tool was not generating the
black-and-white emoji.  The issue is that Pillow compiled without
libfreetype cannot extract those emoji (and gives an error of the form
"The _imagingft C module is not installed"), and if libfreetype-dev
isn't installed, pip will happily build and install Pillow without
libfreetype.

Tim Abbott 0d85ab2062 README: Clean up Mac installation instructions for Virtualbox/Vagrant.
* Removes the hardcoding of an old version of Virtualbox (and doesn't
  specify the version to avoid getting stale again over time).
* Flips around the langauge to assume you don't have Vagrant already.
* Makes clear that the first-time installation is a lot slower than
  future runs will be.

Fixes #5.
