Add instructions on "starting Nextstrain"

For step-by-step tutorials, it's hard to provide an exact sequence of steps that works for both Docker and Native runtimes, since the startup process is slightly different:

Docker:

conda activate nextstrain
nextstrain shell .
# in nextstrain shell
nextstrain build ...

Native:

conda activate nextstrain
nextstrain build ...

Possible solution

Expand the central installation doc with instructions on "how to start Nextstrain" (i.e. how to bring up an environment where nextstrain build can be run).

Docker:

  1. Start Docker
  2. conda activate nextstrain
  3. nextstrain shell .

Native:

  1. conda activate nextstrain

Oh, I don't know what I was thinking last night. No need to nextstrain shell . for nextstrain build
