Fix bugs in example of how to use with pipenv (#607)
* Fix bugs in example of how to use with pipenv The current example of how to use `@actions/cache` with pipenv has two problems: 1. The cached virtualenv that pipenv creates has `bin/python` as a symlink into paths like `/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.7.11` that explicitly include the patch version of python. When the cache is restored onto a machine running a slightly different version of python, e.g., when GitHub upgrades its runners from python 3.7.10 to 3.7.11, then any attempt to run python in the workflow mysteriously fails with errors like `Failed to load paths: /bin/sh: 1: /home/runner/.local/share/virtualenvs/myrepo-sOIMCiTO/bin/python: not found`. Therefore the patch version of python should be included in the cache key. 2. `pipenv --install` has the unfortunate behaviour of not cleaning out any pre-existing packages. That is, if the `Pipfile` first contains dependencies on `foo` and `bar`, and then you remove `bar` from the `Pipfile` and run `pipenv install` again, `bar` is still included in the virtualenv. This can cause false-positive test failures: when a dependency is removed from the `Pipfile` but there is still code that relies on the removed dependency, tests can still pass if the dependency comes from the cache based on a previous revision of `Pipfile.lock`. Therefore `restore-keys` should not be set. This PR attempts to address both of these issues. * Explain why setup-python is included in example
