Fix problems with multiline doctests and add docs about testing....
Fix problems with multiline doctests and add docs about testing. Also enabled some more testings that were blacklisted, now that the testing machinery is more robust.

"""IPython Test Suite Runner.
This module provides a main entry point to a user script to test IPython itself
from the command line. The main() routine can be used in a similar manner to
the ``nosetests`` script, and it takes similar arguments, but if no arguments
are given it defaults to testing all of IPython. This should be preferred to
using plain ``nosetests`` because a number of nose plugins necessary to test
IPython correctly are automatically configured by this code.
