Backport PR #5458: Add support for PyQt5. This PR adds the new `QT_API_PYQT5` to `IPython/external/qt_loaders.py ` and allows to embed the IPython console in Qt5 Applications. In case of PyQt5, the loader returns a union of `PyQt5.QtGui` and `PyQt5.QtWidgets` acting as a Qt4-QtGui compatibility module. One small fix to `InProcessChannel.__init__` was necessary though. For some reason, when constructing `QtInProcessShellChannel`, the `QtCore.QObject.__init__` initializer from `SuperQObject` indirectly calls the `InProcessChannel.__init__` function, which doesn't have a default constructor and thus fails. I assume this has something to do with the metaclass/multiple inheritance approach IPython uses on QObject. Adding a default value for `client` in `InProcessChannel.__init__` solved the problem for me.

=======================================================
Nose plugin with IPython and extension module support
=======================================================

This directory provides the key functionality for test support that IPython
needs as a nose plugin, which can be installed for use in projects other than
IPython.

The presence of a Makefile here is mostly for development and debugging
purposes as it only provides a few shorthand commands. You can manually
install the plugin by using standard Python procedures (``setup.py install``
with appropriate arguments).

To install the plugin using the Makefile, edit its first line to reflect where
you'd like the installation. If you want it system-wide, you may want to edit
the install line in the plugin target to use sudo and no prefix::

sudo python setup.py install

instead of the code using `--prefix` that's in there.

Once you've set the prefix, simply build/install the plugin with::

make

and run the tests with::

make test

You should see output similar to::

maqroll[plugin]> make test
nosetests -s --with-ipdoctest --doctest-tests dtexample.py
