Support IPython 2

[bollwyvl]

IPython 2.0 will be around for a while (RHEL, etc), and there are lots of v3 notebooks out there, just waiting to become tests. Supporting these looks not crazy.

• appropriate changes from @gramster
• relax requirements.txt
• add more test notebooks (matrix getting larger, with test with python 2.7 #11)
• documentation

@gramster how would you feel about either me stealing your changes related to this, or you working up a PR? Regarding that change: the startup script stuff seems a bit odd: how do you generate a known good notebook if something else has to happen to get the right output?

[gramster]

I'm quite happy with you stealing my changes.

The startup script is because we have a config.py that gets loaded in our environment and I need to load that in the test environment too (it contains just a single import in our case).

Lovely. I'm working on setting up tox for py2/3 and ipy2/3/4, so this is
very timely. will end up being lots of very, very similar notebooks :P

As to the config, i'm happy to bring in something like that (on another
PR), but maybe under another, more nose-like name... perhaps it's more like
a "setup". Feel free to raise an issue for discussion!

@gramster 0.4.0, also up on pip, adds IPython 2 support! I've also opened an issue #14 for the config ne setup feature.

Thanks muchly. We're in a bit of a crunch right now so I haven't had a chance to test but should get to it by next week.
