New description:
Packages should be installed using `sage -i` from a shell, not with the
`install_package()` Sage command.
For consistency in error messages, we introduce the exception
`PackageNotFoundError` which should be used to signal that a package is
not installed. This idea was taken from an existing but unused exception
`OptionalPackageNotFoundError` (which is removed).
