If a user or contributor ran `pip install -e .` on transformers < 3.0,
pip created a transformers.egg-info directory next to the transformers
directory at the root of the repository.

In transformers 3.0, the source is in a `src` subdirectory.
`pip install -e .` creates a transformers.egg-info directory there.
However, pip will still pick transformers.egg-info from the previous
location. This is a bug: https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5466

Users and contributors are likely to hit this problem because the
documentation for transformers 3.0 relies heavily on extra_requires
which didn't exist in earlier versions, so aren't defined in a stale
transformers.egg-info directory.

If such a directory exists, remove it. It's autogenerated, gitignored
and not supposed to contain anything of value.
