Installation instructions leave users vulnerable to namesquatting #23

Description

@D-to-the-K

Hi! First of all, thank you for maintaining the google-ads-datamanager-util package.

The README.rst file instructs users to install the package using the following command:
pip install google-ads-datamanager-util

This command is currently failing because the package doesn't exist in PyPI (https://pypi.org/project/google-ads-datamanager-util/):

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement google-ads-datamanager-util (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for google-ads-datamanager-util

What's worse, a malicious user can publish a package with this name to steal user credentials and distribute malware. This is a known as a namesquatting attack.

Please, publish this package to PyPI. Additionally, please publish the other language variants of this package to their respective repositories.

Thanks in advance!
