Fixes isaaclab.sh script to deal with local system python (#649)

# Description

Realized that #631 did not deal properly with the case when not in a
conda or docker. This MR re-writes the logic to hopefully make the
operation safe.

## Type of change

- Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)

## Checklist

- [x] I have run the [`pre-commit` checks](https://pre-commit.com/) with
`./isaaclab.sh --format`
- [ ] I have made corresponding changes to the documentation
- [ ] My changes generate no new warnings
- [ ] I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my
feature works
- [ ] I have updated the changelog and the corresponding version in the
extension's `config/extension.toml` file
- [x] I have added my name to the `CONTRIBUTORS.md` or my name already
exists there
