Describe the fix.
Plotting a coupling map requires the graphviz library. We should list it as a requirement in this topic.
On Mac it seems simple to install, but on Windows, there's a whole big process. I didn't have time to investigate further, but wanted to note the requirement.
MissingOptionalLibraryError: "The 'graphviz' library is required to use 'plot_coupling_map'. You can install it with ''brew install graphviz' if on Mac, or by downloding it from their website'."
