Incompatibility with notebook package

[bencleary]

The current implementation of shell_plus results in an import error ImportError: No module named notebook.notebookapp. This is because the notebook package API has changed so much that the import expected in line 281 of shell_plus.py expects the old package structure.

To rectify this i had to manually specify versions of the notebook, which means i loose out on other features. Happy to do the work if someone can review!

Initial thoughts are to either check the version of the package or just try catch the import and try either the new or old import styles.

Specifically it is python manage.py shell_plus --notebook that is failing with the above error. python manage.py shell_plus --lab is still working as far as I can tell.
