This is only done if MPLBACKEND is not already set and no backend has been explicitly loaded,
so setting ``MPLBACKEND=Qt4Agg`` or calling ``%matplotlib notebook`` or ``matplotlib.use('Agg')``
will take precedence.
- Fixes for logging problems caused by 4.3,
where logging could go to the terminal instead of the notebook.
- Add ``--sys-prefix`` and ``--profile`` arguments to :command:`ipython kernel install`
- Allow Comm (Widget) messages to be sent from background threads.
- Select inline matplotlib backend by default if ``%matplotlib`` magic or
``matplotlib.use()`` are not called explicitly (for matplotlib >= 1.5).
- Fix some longstanding minor deviations from the message protocol
(missing status: ok in a few replies, connect_reply format).
- Remove calls to NoOpContext from IPython, deprecated in 5.0.
