[oe] meta-python/python-matplotlib

[Tim Orling]

Rather than keep all the work I have done in the dark, I pushed the (not
ready for prime time) WIP branch to contrib [1]. I was a bit over zealous
and tried to also get the documentation to build (as there are tests for
documentation). I also have not completely gotten the pytest.ini to skip
tests as needed (some of the tests hang or take too long to run or have
other issues). I have been working on this off and on for months.
